I'm guessing, but I think the car would top out at around 178-185MPH before the engine simply can't push the car down the road any faster. It has everything to do with the torque at the highest RPMs, because there's a slow dropoff. As for making the car faster on accelleration - the cheapest method would be to strip the interior and make the car overall lighter. Next to that, a good exhaust and intake. If you want to spend some money, get a Twin Turbo Kit installed, and see about getting the rar diff ratio dropped a bit to take advantage of it. Anyhow, 165MPH (the limiter in the car) isn't fast enough to outrun physics or a police radio, and outside of the Autobahn, I don't know of any place you can legally drive that fast. |

![]() I lived in Thailand (Udorn) for nearly 3 years. A long time ago, of course. So much has changed now. I remember the "Bangkok Buses" crusing down a 2-lane highway doing 130-140 KPH.

Focus on transmission output torque (the tranny simply works as a torque multiplier; same for the final drive ratio). And always focus on high avg numbers. Peak numbers are for marketing.
