If you are only getting 145 MPH out of your C then it is way slow (you did notice is MPH and not knots right?) At 8000 I routinely get 165 miles per hour out of my C at WOT and 2400 RPM (142 knots). I have not checked to see what I can get at full RPM but it might be close to 170 MPH or 147 Kts

I have to agree with Hector. My C routinely indicates 135-140 MPH at 9000 msl and above (162-165 true) at 2500. That's with 9 gph block fuel burn. Higher RPM would increase fuel burn and speed.
