Lamborghini Murcielago

So I took my buddy to the airport this morning and on my way home I was just having some fun on the open express lanes when I see some HID lights in my rear. I see it move back and forth a couple times and notice it's definitely moving fast and that it looks like an exotic sports car. Well, he comes up to me, stops for just a sec and guns it again. There was no traffic in the express lanes so I thought might as well have a fun drive home and at around 70mph I dropped her into third, wound out forth, and was in fifth doing about 155, but he kept pulling away. I let off around 155 cause I wasn't too confident in my tires in the freezing Chicago weather. But, in the few seconds the car was near me I noticed it was a Lamborghini Murcielago. I caught up to him in the city and he gave me a thumbs up and we went separate ways. I have a couple bolt ons, but my boost controller is dead so I'm just running the 6 or 7psi. Even at 15psi I don't think I could've kept up with him, but it was really cool to see a Lamborghini really movin.
I wonder how fast he was going?

I'm sure you could take it if you were boosting 15psi, I ran one in Ft Lauderdale a couple of weeks back ( I was boosting 11psi) from about 60 to 130mph's. Im sure that after about 150+ you might have problems, but where are you gonna run at those speeds anyways?
