I have done 165MPH in my A5 TDI and it had enough power to go more, but there was a limiter. :(

Guys, you are funny funny. :thumbsup:

Boom_Boom guy, it might be worth reading my signature first, don't you think? :no: My car is modified by MTM and has 310/640, not 240/500 like stock, mind you I have reached 165MPH when my car was stock as well. :) And by the way, I have personally seen a value of 310KPH in a V8 R8.

And I am sure that without the limiter my car will be able to hit 280-285KPH on the speedometer, after all I have done 266KPH uphill! By the way, value of 266KPH on the speedometer is actually corresponding to value of 250-255 GPS. So don't really get the point of so much excitement?

I am not saying that my car is a rocket or anything, but hell, I have seen 230BHP cars hitting 270KPH on the speedo (Golf GTI Edition 30), so why my 310BHP car won't hit 280?

@Alejandro: It's a pity, that the cantronic doesn't disable the speed limiter - I also think, your car is able ride "real" (GPS)-265 kph... But by the way - the Golf's "270" kph are surely not more than real 245 kph. Its speedo is imprecise at higher speeds.
It is a shame, indeed. I have asked them why and they said that at this moment they are simply not capable of doing it. :thumbsdown:
