Default Why does my '01 Accord EX V6 coupe top out at 115mph?

I recently purchased a '01 Accord EX V6 coupe to do a little racing but want to keep it as street legal as possible(emission laws are crazy in Cali).... any suggestions? The first thing i was thinking about adding is Comptech intake, exhaust, sway bars, & springs.... Then i was going to add a Brembo HP big brake kit...... And finally a Comptech Supercharger.....
......So my question is... "If the EX model doesn't have a govenor, will I get my car to max out before adding the supercharger?...and will adding 20" rims really prevent anything?"

So where did you top out at 115mph?

And why would you purchase a v6 with a craptastic automatic to do "racing"
