Re: top speeds..
I have had my k8 up to 110 but could feel the dynamics of the vehicle changing at that point. i am not 17 anymore and not a test pilot. would like to replace a few items before i pushed it any faster.

I run a kevlar ACT, non button clutch. Flywheel is unorthodox racing aluminum with the kevalr inserts. It grips like a crocodile.

Re: K&N air fliter
I had all my mild modifications done at the same time, so I don't know what if any contribution K&N had to the overall effect. I think headers and lightweight flywheel had the most to do with it.

Re: Silver spark plugs?
I haver really liked the Denso Irridium plugs in my K8. I get about 27 mpg with mixed driving and can almost get 33 mpg on a tank with full highway use. I drive like grandpa on the highway, 65mph.

I bought the second generation ssauto chrome headers with the flex pipe. Stainless. They are great, but set up for an mx-6, so get ready to cut some pipe and rework the egr bung tube. Think it had a negative effect on my low range power. However, the difference really comes into focus at approx. 4.1...
