whats the fastest speed that youve driven your MR2?

on an empty long straight highway I brought my stock 88 supercharged MR2 up to 130mph and it had power to go higher but I slowed down since the car felt like it was fixing to go airborne. Im wondering if anyone ever took their MR2 faster.

my 93 n\a stopped pulling (downhill) at around 130... I wasn't really watching the speedo...
my friend had just bought his new GSXR 600.... and needless to say, he blew by me at about 160... that's crazy-fast on the street.

yeah... that's not something you wanna try and "rig".... you might as well put in a 5sfte while your at it!!! and hey... smoke a cigar next time you're pumping gas!!!

none of which are the best decisions
