Depends on tire size and speedo adjustment. I think mine defuels about 110-115. I dont have the drag upgrade but I do have an ADD that is supposed to take it to 3200. According to boost gauge it doesnt last quite that long.

115 in my 02 and had plenty to go! I had 3.55, 35in tires and a 5 spd. In my 06, it tops out @ 95, that's red line!

had my 91 to 105 once, thanks to 3.07 rear gears and overdrive. Had more in her, but it started to get real floaty on I75
