Yeah, they're fun as s***, specially when you get one from a police auction, that still has their accesories...lol, my friend has one, it's tight, with some nice muscle style chrome rims on navy blue, very smooth and sexy
Yeah, mine was a civilian grandma 87 LX. I did some work to it, HO conversion, gears....200RWHP and 275Ft/lbs.

I have been over 130 a couple times, my friends used to borrow the vic for bracket racing and I'd get a Z28 camaro, I ran it pretty hard. We also used to have a 79 Lincoln with a done up 302, I raced a Formula 350 and a RX7 on the highway. Hung with both ~140mph. Damn scary when I realized how fast I was going!

yea, the T in VW GTI 1.8T stands for "turbo" ;)
oohh i thought that he was talking to the guy that claimed 140 in his MP5....

but yea if i got a chip i could get it to 155....but ig i got a stage 3 turbo, somewhere arround the 170-180 area...(im crazy enough to test it)

125 and 115 in the rain now that was scary!!!
i've done that before...but i had to be somewhere in a time limit for work so it seemed like 60....oohh yea, it was a 2 lane road and i was passing people too lol
 
I had my IS300 up to 130 once driving back from Arkansas. I was playing around with a Mustang GT (no contest). I've only been to around 100 or so in the PR5. It doesn't get there near as fast as the IS300 did, but it's plenty fun to drive.
 
Is the P5 limited by anything but drag/gearing?

The MSP hits a fuel cut or whatever at right around 135. It feels like "THE" fuel cut you hit running high boost.
 
i've done about 130ish.. i was tryin to keep up with an sti.. dont ask me why. those things are to damn fast.
 
Had my p5 up to 120mph, my 95 delSol up to bout 135mph, had to slow down, had plenty more ummff left, had a 1987 vette up to bout 165mph, and I used to have motorcycle that I went to bout 165mph on the freeway out in cali before I realized it then slowed down so I could live.
 
a few months ago i had a chance to drive a J-SPEC evo7 on the streets for a few days, it had an exhaust, intake, ecu mod, twin plate clutch!! WOW!! i hit 157 in a wiz and i let out of it, that thing is sick, if i where to own one, id be i jail once a aweek!! LOL
 
UPDATE: Today I got it to 180kph= 112mph on a very quiet highway where there is never cops. I was in a real hurry.

150 kph= 93mph Is my max speed so far. The highest I will ever go is probably 100 mph but I havent done that yet.
 
I topped out at 125 before. Now though with my timing retard i top out at 110-115... but i get there quicker :D
although here is something
maybe its cause i have an auto but i always hit the floor with the gas pedal at top speed. I will have 2k left on my tach and no more gas? wtf
 
~135 . That was down hill on very long road. There no way in hell you guys have been up to 150 in a P5.
 
mine didnt want to go any faster than 110....i could tell that the p5 isnt the most sleek car ever. its still pimp tho
