Actually this car would be better suited than most in achieving a high top speed. It's drag cd is quite low, I believe it's in the neighborhood of .27 depending on the spoiler, underbody work. If I were you I would install a front splitter, lower it, get a custom diffuser made and realize that as you increase speed your resistance is cubed so you will need some serious hp. Lowering it will give you more downforce, less air resistance, and perhaps add some stability.
