With 74K Bone Stock I ran 14.1 @ 97mph. Sounds like you have an issue somewhere. Good luck!

As luck would have it, i was having the same problem with the car only shifting at like 4600 rpm. I took the bellows off the throttle body and pushed the gas pedal down to what i thought was WOT. Come to find out the TB was only open like half way.

I thought it was out of adjustment or something, then realized you just gotta mash the pedal. The pedal moves another half inch or so, and the TB opens up all the way to 90 degrees. Feels like i gained another 75 hp. Car now shifts at redline, downshifts much more aggresively, and is more fun to drive.

Ive been missing out on the cars full power for months. Just put some more *** into it when you floor it. You'll **** when you see what its really got, and kick yourself.
