Now, a year ago whilst being stupid, my boyfriend and I decided to put the pedal to the floor to see how much the car would open up. Before I told him to stop and slow down, I think we managed over 135mph?
Apparently, his boss had a guy work on his car's ECU and now he's able to push his car farther than 125mph. Out of curiosity, since our ECU has such a nice ability to adapt to new add-ons, would it be even necessary to mess with it to further tap into the car's potential?

The best a few guys could get with a piggy back on a 2.0l optra with CAT-back, SRI, and UD pulley was .75hp...not even worth the tuning.
I doubt you got 135mph though, and if you did your speedos way off. Nealy stock our cars usually struggle to do 120mph. Also I don't know of any manufactures that have rev/speed limiters at 125mph and the evo should easily hit over that completely stock.
