Default Funjet Ultra setup help

Hey guys, after reading the long funjet thread, i have decided to go with the funjet ultra to fulfill my speed needs and i have some questions regarding the setup. My over all goal is a "reasonable" priced setup that will perform very well. My main goal it to be able to "sport fly" and enjoy the plane and be able to really have some speed when i want it. I am not looking to build a plane that is setup for only top speed. But, i would like to see a top speed in the 150 MPH range while still being reliable and usable. But, most of the threads i read are only about speed. Is it possible to have a setup that will be that fast while staying usable on a regular type basis?

If so, i am assuming i will need a 75-100 amp ESC and a 5-6 cell 30 or more C rated battery. But what about motor, prop and battery capacity selection? I have no experience with mega, neu, himax and other high performance motors.

Please let me know your thoughts and what setup you would recommend !!!
