Mine will only show 150 MPH (240 KMH) in 5. gear and doing aprox. 6500 rpm. Is this normal for a standard MY01? could it be down on power? it will do 0-70 in 2. gear. What is the topspeed of your standard (if this is possible) new age.

If yours is a standard car and has a fairly accurate speedo then I wouldn't be disappointed with that.

On the Unipar Speedace laser my speedo is accurate to over 80mph.

You should only be doing 6000rpm at 150 true mph! if you are pulling 6500 you should be going about 162 true mph.

I think the gearing is 24.9mph per 1000rpm on the new age cars!
