i have seen 165mph on my gps and still pulling in my 2004 sti uk.

i think the hawkeye gearing is even longer to use the torque levels of the 2.5.

I just did that top speed thing and I can get 203 Mph in reverse. Might give that a go.

Mine's limited to 256 kph ( 157 mph ! ) according to the manual ! But god knows what it would reach with 400 bhp and no interfering electronics....

DunxC

P.S. at 7000 rpm it would be around 180 mph

Supposing it was geared the same and rev limiter set the same would still only do 157mph!

Yeah ! with the standard SPEED limiter, but a JGM re-map could sort that one.

GULP !

c.o.b. if I catch up with you you're a dead man....

as I'll give you a lift you cheeky young whippersnapper !

LOL

P.S. Standard rev limiter is about 7800 IIRC
