okay my engine is completly unmodified so bare that in mind when I say that apparently my top speed is 96. not kidding. I downshifted all the way to third and redlined for a short while, then reded 4 and 5 is 96 at 5400rpm. Is this a sign of something bad under the hood (except for having a stock d16) or is my clutch slippin maybe a little, or is this just normal? I know I shouldn't worry too much about top speed and concentrate on accel, but its bothering me.

plus if also heard that if you remove the resonator you increase top speed. true? also, do you still utilize the resonator with a CAI? I didn't think so but im not sure.
