theres cars that go 0-120 in 20 seconds. 80-120 in 20 isnt something to really brag about. going that speed in probably what looks like a stock car and not getting in an accident or losing control, thats something to brag about.

With the governor on our SS removed through tuning I've seen 135 and the car was still pulling.

I'm sure the 3800 can push the car over 150, my modded 99 Grand Am with the 3400 in it hit 160 before it ran out of gear.

I will NEVER take my Monte to 150+mph. That would be one of the scariest drives ever. However, if I hit 120 or so in the 1/4 mile, that's okay

A guy on Clubgp.com said that he had his Grand Prix up to 171mph. He's not sure about how accurate his speedo was but he said it was shaking really bad.
