Question 1991 Mustang 2.3 non turbo top speed?

So yeah I have a 1991 2.3 Mustang. Its stock besides a 40 series flowmaster muffler and a drop in k&n air filter. I was wondering what would be top speed? I haven't had the chance to go to the track and try it out. I know the speedometer says the highest is 85 mph but I'm sure it can go past 85 mph. Anyways If I did go over 85 mph I wouldn't know what speed I'd be going. So does anyone else know what their top speed is on a 2.3 non turbo Mustang(stock or not)?. Thanks!

Sounds alright, I could probably get around there. I have an auto as well.
