Default P1 tech spec.

Guy's, just had a read in an auto trader P1 advert spec list and to my suprise it's top speed is listed as 155mph. Can that be? Of all the stuff i have searched about top mount intercoolers not been any use in a classic over 100mph this comes as a shock.

Other than that 155mph from a 280bhpcar with such a close ratio gearbox is not bad at all.

Any P1 boys able to shed some light for me please?

Limited!! 155!! Thats not bad at all. I derestricted my STi V2 with 260ps and there is no way it goes close to 155mph. I am liking the P1 more and more!

You probably have a shorter ratio'd box on your V2 STI, my V5 STI type R is ratio'd to 155(approx) mph in 5th, the P1 should be ratio'd to about 167mph in 5th

True, my WRX has 280ps but only 112mph tops (180kph).
Make sure it's undersealed though.
