outline speed isnt fun, going down twisty roads is.

my old standerd 1.1 did 108mph :cool:

Dropp it out a plane :)

LOL... Did make me chuckle!

in all respect, its not all about "top end" what do you use more, top end or ur 0-60.
your in town, stop at lights, pull off... yes ur obviously going to use your top end :s, unles its a matiz then yeah :D

i have a problem when SSW go on cruises, i get left behind cuz everyone starts to start hittin tonne 20 in their cars and im left at pushin 90 tbh, but around town im the only one whos taking that bend at 40 and leaving them behind in the lanes.

and if its all about top end, my XJR 1300 with a "few minor" adjustments sits off the clock at 180! and im only 18, cant name another mate with whatever car at my age that can do that kind of shit!

Said like a true pro. To be fair 1.1's are made for the tesco run not 115mph.

The only thing you can do is track slag it really. make it as light as possible. no point in spending money on the engine because your only ever going to see very little gains. however, striping the inside is free and you will get the same increase in performance.

Right i used to think gettting that type of speed out of a 1.1 was a load of crap but i got the limiter in 5th, might you i was going down a hill i would say it was probably like 117 mph but thats like the max it would ever go!!!

whereabouts did you do 117mph?

As long as its warm, and well serviced you should be fine taking it up to the limiter every now and again, after all, its there to stop the engine over-reving.

Love it when someone says 'how fast is your car?', in what respect? Top speed? Dunno, never done it. Acceleration? Quick enough, but not quick enough at the same time. Corners? Never quick enough.

[QUOTE=dannyboy2005;2510916]Right.


wont hurt at a keep them high.

you have an XJR1300?

love to see you get insured on one of them...

vid of you riding it or i dont beleive you tbh...

Might be insured but should be restricted tut tut, i ride a cb400sf restricted and its nippy enough, keeps with 1.6's and does 100tops. :(

Love it!! that made me laugh! lol

This might help :)

No they are out a lot.

it's not a fixed amount they're out by... it's a percentage.

put a 1.0 head on it increase the compression ratio just that little bit

we know that, ive actually got it to the end of the clock after about 5 miles flat out on the M6 on the way back from the lakes. no word of a lie. can easily touch 100 on a daily drive! one day if i get the equipment i'll prove it!

but then again it is LOADS more fun on B roads

strip them!!!! my mates 1.1 smashed a 206 gti on a long straight, he was gutted! you will be suprised how many people you can annoy in a stripped 1.1!

Saxos arn't really made for top speed they are for beatin peeps of the lights as they hav a good acc. But on the other had i owned ma m8 in a drag race n hes got a 1.4 corsa ;) i have done a few little engine mods nothin silly or expensive.

Silly boy. :homme:

my vtr knocks owt 115 top end thats standard so theres no way in hell them figures are rite. my old 1.1 106 only just say made 80mph in 5th.

Going down dromossie brae in inverness! it was serious! ;)

why bother 1.1 are wank i have one <---- looks good and then a gran over takes me!! there is no point in engine mods as there slow dont bother and save for a vts that what ive done buy my alloys if you want they add 15bhp

i must ask how did u get 113 out of it? ive pushed mine to 105, and it wouldnt do any more! what mods have u done to it?

ive had about 120 out of mine aswell

your 1.1 saxo? explain how?!? using nos? or turbo?

or did a viper tow u? lol.

Mine does 105 lol! Standard

yeah i heard there limited to 105, im not sure how true that is. but obviously something is wrong when people are saying there car can do 115+ from a 1.1. lmao

touched 105 earlier actually

probably helps to have a well maintained engine!

Iv had mine to 110.. like stated a well maintened engine helps also exhaust and filter

Can i ask, were do you all test your speed ??

Well is there not two 1.1 Mpi/Spi, would that not make a diffferance?

I dono.. I've had just over 115mph dannyboy = what a cock. 115 no way. what you got footwell neons that add 60bhp

stop being an arse

where i got my top speed, somewhere between penrith and lancaster on the M6.

isnt the MPI slightly quicker?

*waits for people to start bangin on about, how speeding is dangerous and selfish blah blah blah*

no way do that in a N/A 1.1 even my old turbo only managed 120 @ oulton park

being an arse, im not the cock that thinks my 1.1 does 115 becuase asbove a standard saxo 1.1 wont end off

Haha, theres some guy that said his wouldnt go over 80! Look, it happened once, and it did take a good 5 miles to get there from 100! And a hill!

lol;) :cool::cool:
