I have a 95 SE 5spd, with 105k, and with 3 people in the car I've hit 137. I think if it was just me, I could have hit 140.

i can get a good run up to about 115/120. I guess i've just always run out of road on the parkway. Usually after 120 its like it hits a wall and crawls up slowly.

55k?

At 55k miles it might be time for that scheduled maintenance. I have heard some people say that changin out there spark plugs/fuel pump. Maybe that is your prob?

Yeah I never got the major tune ups yet. I skipped the 30k mile one, but I plan on getting the 60k done sometime soon. It has been feeling sluggish since I broke 50k.
