But all of this Said 125 Mph is generally good for mid-High 10s in an efficient light weight setup.

So unless you have an insight or late civic hybrid, the crx is hard to beat aerodynamically. My bone stock 80k mile 89 si (if you can believe that. This is back in '98)went 130mph and probably only made 90whp.

Not worth it....
