Well with more power you can run taller gearing which will give you more top end. But you can build it all you want, even put nitros on it, and it still won't go any faster. It will just get there faster.

If you build it for more power, raise the rev limiter, and gear it higher you'll get a noticeable top end difference.

By the way, just putting 22's on there with stock gearing you'll get a little more top end.
