I have had my SVX up to 145. It is pretty well stock. I know of one person who said that he achieved 171 on a stock SVX.
Mind you that there are many factors that will result in higher speeds. A few of the big factors in the SVX's top speed are Air Density, Temp, and Barometric Pressure. Altitude plays a big role as well. I have found with my SVX that a temp. of around 50 degrees is great and barometric pressure around 29.50 is ideal. Not all SVX's respond the same to these conditions.
When the SVX was tested, all the stats were based on Sea Level(or close to sea level) altitude, which helps a lot.
The EG33 is a great engine, but the final drive in the transmission will retard most top speed performance. A good final drive would be a 4.11 or a 4.44 final drive. Higer top end. The auto doesn't help it much either.
