I recently bought an STI import 2001 model. At the moment it's standard apart from the rear cat being removed and replaced with a straight through Remus exhaust, (still has front cat intact) I got the speed up to 155mph and that was on my GPS system so i presume it was accurate.
Yet the rpm was only 7000, leaving at least 1000 rpm before the red line. It didn't want to budge above 7000 rpm but i ran out of road so can't be sure if it would have crept up abit?

Also my model number on the strut plate shows as GDBA4EH. I can't find that anywhere on any chart or info sheet on the net, so what is it??

Cheers!

Stick to the under 60 mph limits then a national limit clear road is one long run way!!

Now, surely somebody out there has the knowledge to answer my first question???

Thanks for that

What is the top end speed of yours?

As mentioned are they limited to 155mph?? It still had 1000rpm left at that speed???

Don't know what the top speed is - never pushed it to find out, anything over 120 ish is a bit suicidal on UK roads. When i really want to blast at high speed i get my bike out

(also the carbon bonnet flexes alarmingly and i don't want it coming through the windscreen - must get around to buying some bonnet pins!!)
