What do you have in your EF and how fast have you taken it????????
I just maxed mine out on the 605 Frwy. I have a Trust exhaust and Intake on my 91 Civic Si. Took it to 118MPH and let off, thats about all she had anyways, but I didn't want to blow her up either. Please Post your speed so I can get a good idea of how fast different engines go in the same car. Please post what mods you have too. I am looking to do an engine swap, but cant make up my mind. Got $$$ for X-mas and its burnin a hole in my pocket!!!!

The fastest I have honestly ran my car was 134 MPH.
it was during a chin motorsports driving school at Sebring international racetrack.
A friend of mine has a radar gun and we took it there to meassurse car's speed.
I could have gone faster, but I ran out of track.
the back stretch is about 1/2 mile long, so thre wasn't enough room to let it stretch
Anyways, it was fast enough to pass a 2000 Corvete.
Now, on my HF, I think 81 MPH and it was scary as hell!

I took my zc sedan up to about 125 on my speedo so my guess would be about 120 since the speedo is usually inaccurate at high speeds.

sure, but can it do it in 1/2 mile?
I know a 2000 vete has way more top end than my CRX,
heck, I will redline at about 150mph in fifth.

Yeah, but the aerodynamic properties wont let your car touch 150mph, unles you've got some top-speed oriented suspesnion, as well as added downforce to the front and rear of the car

Re: What do you have in your EF and how fast have you taken it???????? (Phatwhippin_CRX)
in my old ef hatch with a d16a1 swap(integra) I had it off the speedo at like 5700rpms(sport comp tach). I was f'n flying and still climbing slowly. My speedo was pinned but I had rpm's left so I am guessing I was doing between 120-135. i brought it up to about 6400 so I know I was going extrmely fast for that little car 
Won't do it again...
