Did you stop at 125 or the car? The exhaust is all you have installed so far right?

No I let off at 125. I had the cruise control set on around 135-137 on my way home from San Antonio one weekend. All I have installed is WORX 4-way adjustable BOV and the catback.

Yeah from looking around NASIOC, my likely whp will be 250+ awhp. Right now the car is tuned for 91 octane and there isn't 91 octane in Texas, only 89 and 93, so it doesn't run perfect. Once I get it protuned I am hoping to pass 275 awhp on stage two, doubt I will get it, but I can be optimistic.

BOVs cause more harm than good. First off they can retard your injectors if not tuned for one and also they cause your gas mileage to drop DOWN! When the air is brought in, the computer calculates for the air in the intake system and when it comes out of the BOV, it uses the calculation for the air that is released causing it to run rich and get around 19 mpg when I can get usually 28-31 with the BOV closed.
