I've got a '98 4banger with 33's, lifted, and I'll second that 5th gear is about useless if not re-geared. I only use fifth to hold the same speed on a flat South Carolina straight highway.

I've pushed it up to 65 mph, but it's hard to go faster than that. Depends on which way the wind blows, too. Still runs stock air intake (but does a cracked hole next to the air intake count as a "mod"?), mech fan, no change on catback exhaust as far as I know (bought it used and was heavily modded from previous owner).

It's worth it though, to be a foot higher and looking out over all the yuppie Ford Expedition/Cadillac Escalade SUVs here at the coast :)

If I wanted to go any faster, I'd use the daily driver (Infiniti G35c)
