Also the transmission isn't designed for high speeds, changing the gear ratios can't help cause there arent enough gears in auto or manual, (4 and 5).
you must have an auto trans im assuming. my aveo (manual) does not take that long at all to hit 100. it seems to really start to drag at like 90 for me. also if you dont have a suspension upgrade or some wider wheels at least the aveo is very unstable. i noticed on mine that it gets real shifty at speeds over 90.
