with a 7800rpm 151.9mph. Thats not to say you will actually hit that speed on the road btw. I have a spread sheet on my PC at home.
Its the same one Joesnow used in the sticky thread. (he created the spreadsheet, but i have a copy )
141.9mph is standard wheel size, gearbox and limiter.
Think its all pretty much accurate.

that graphs above give a good indicator but cnat say deffinate anyting as theres too many factors,
trye pressure, aerodynamics of the car, head/tail wind if any, gradient of road, road surface, temperature outside, condtion of engine ..............
