That's what I thought too...

Perhaps the 7000+ ft. altitude doest help much with that either.

That, and a if you're running with a steeper gear, (4:10, etc) that may alter top speed as well...

I really don't know what Gears I'm running. I would presume stock, for I turn around 2250RPM @ ~80mph.

Hell top speed now that I put my posi and 3.73's in is 115. It pulls so hard all the way there and then bam it's like a brick wall . To bad I cant get a chip.
