I'd say it's possible... you had to have had a major stretch of road to get it to 130, though. Neal can only run to 136 or so with his N/A 5.4L. I've had mine to 115 with room for a little more. I don't want to push this tank past that, though.

how'd you get to 124mph??? I thought our trucks had a top off? Like 105 and then it shuts down???

You gotta have a chip or something to remove that, don't you?

124 on all motor! In order to go that fast you must have to have a whole bunch of mods like:

Ported Throttle body
Mac Intake
Fordchip Flip-chip
Straight Pipe exhaust
ASP Pulleys
Electic Fan
Centerforce Stage 1 Clutch
Powertrax Lock-Right Locker

I have only been to the track once. I ran against my friends taurus SHO. I had a very bad reaction time. I had a .978 but still ran a 16.1 with just chip intake and exhaust. he beat me with a .576 reaction time and a 16.0 in the 1/4. the fastest I have had my truck is about 123 with no wind and slightly down hill. on the flat roads I can get 118 at about 4700 RPM. thats pretty good. just imagin if we could redline 5th gear. we could get about a buck 50 and then some out of these trucks.
