There are the official figures thats the speed you get, speedos can be 10+ mph out at them speeds...

Speedos maybe out, GPS maybe out.
But knowing what speed your doing in accordance to wheel size and gear ratios and rev's, I doubt it. VTS is capable of going beyond 127mph

Me and another Guy in my car, Mk1 VTR when I had it, Induction Kit, and Powerflow Exhaust, got it to 125 on the straight and Flat surfaces of Germanys Autobahn, didn't take forever to get there either...

My old Golf, 1.8t, will hit 150 easily on the flat

Takes about a week to get past 110 in my VTR, so have never gone past that.
Can also pretty much watch the petrol gauge plummet if I take it over 90 anyways. So very very rarely bother trying.

im gonna say no, simply because 75mph is the most economical in a vtr, and 90 is only 15mph on top of this. your lookin at 80+miles per £10er in a vtr at 75mph or 3,500 revs so it wont be that much difference.
id get to the garage and quick
