Top speed from YOUR saxo (vid from tooobe included)

[Larcomes]

Theres a banger track down by me with a lovely long abandoned old road on same property, got my sax to 132 then backed off as either my clutch or gear box makes abit of a racket at the moment for some reason when pulling off so didnt wanna tear its arse out.

I know saxo's speedos are abit iffy at times but i had my mate in his clio sport along side me at around 130 so i can confirm i made 130 atleast.. which isnt bad for a unmodified VTR engine/box all ive done is bung a pipercross induction kit on it ( freebie so why not ) and a straight through exhaust. mani/back box is all standard at moment.

everything else is cosmetic mods. ie wheels/lights ect.

Ive slapped a turbo on my vtr and can only get 128mph, top end, boosting at 6 psi, and thats including alot of other mods, exhaust, induction kit, etc but standard engine internals with regards pistons and rods, so if you can get a standard vtr ish above 120 your doing very well...

clocked my 1.6 xsi
clocked my gti's
clocked the gti6
but the scariest by far is doing 100+ mph in a classic mini!
scarier even than 160+ in a supercharged k20 lotus elise,...................

saxo vts +s/c220@wheels +vtr g/box =165at7300rpm--I would not want to do it on a very low car --imagine what happens if suspension bottoms out at 160mph--and it won,t take much of a dip inthe road to do that at that speed
drag goes up as a square of speed ,thats why you need silly power to get to 200mph +a slippy shaped car

just spent like 20mins finding the location, and it took me to a field near sutton? aha

120mph give or take a bit that was on the clock so about 110-115 actual speed

will get the gps on the go at some point to get the actual speed

2002 vtr with 72,000 on the clock, with bmc cda, standard mapping with cold air feed down to small hole in the lower slam panel, not tired since taking the rear seats out, need to lose the spare wheel as well

all the exterior is standard

my furio get to about 85-90 nicely then after 90 it crawls lol i asume the gearbox is the same. iv only ever got 110mph out of it. but think thats prettty much all i will get from it. str8 through exhaust, k&n filter standard box. not doing any engine mods untill i get a conversion

[LEWIS1234]

i can hit the 125 mark in my mk2 vtr

[Saaamon]

Had mine at 74 on sat nav but it felt pretty unstable so had to back off.

[saxdazza]

130mph out of a 1.4 box on a vtr and 110mph just shy of redline with a 1.1 box but gets here rather quickly
