MT, somewhere around 40, don't remember exactly. It will depend on gearing and tire size too

Just about 40 on the nose. On a cool day 43 I think. 80 in 2nd gear is top speed on average and I believe 120 or so in 3rd. The rest I've yet to try.

Just around 40, 3.73's in the Boss. It was pretty warm today, close to 90° out.

Still breaking her in, but I juiced it a bit today and got about the same. It was just shy of redline at 40 with 3.73's and that shift to 2nd is nearly orgasmic

It will purely be a function of your gearing: Trans & differential, tire size and what RPM you want to take it to.

It's just that simple.

3.31's with 255/35/20's all around and a Bama Tune. The power band kicks in at about 3300rpms... If I didn't have to daily it I would swap out the gears for 4.13's in a heartbeat. Does the 2v, 3v, or 4v's make a difference at all?
