You can get to higher MPH than that. I have only an intake filter mod and desnorkel mod and i was able to get to 157 MPH in my 1997 Boxster with 125,000 Miles on the engine.

My car is lowered too with somewhat light stock wheels so that probably helped a bit as far as momentum and wind resistance.
