I've had 128 on the dials in the GSi, and the 'calibrated' car which told me how fast I was going said the same...

i had the same. 110 just witha an kn kit. this was befor i ramed the boot fall of ice, so was a lot lighter at the tim. i know i can get 90 at the mo with all the ice, but think if i push it a bit mor i could get 100 again.

Don't take the speedo's word for it
Get a gps if you really want to know how fast you are going (on private land of course)
