This thread is just pure LOL...Your standard car will not beat the manufacturers top speed end of, unless you've modified it then theres no way ! how some of you reckon a backbox and air filter will give you 15mph top end is laughable :L

ive always found they cut you short, i know my old vts (when standard, would pull up there quicker once tuned) would go off the clock (to around 144ish as stated by the sat nav) and i know of others that would do around 135-140, explain how this is possible to me then if the top speeds suppose to be 127 or what ever its suppose to be

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

If you noticed i did put over a track aswell, why would citroen say it did 127mph if infact it could do 20mph more than that as some people claim ?? end of the day its still a saxo, ffs bmw's are limited to 155, so your honestly telling me that can do 144 when a bmw 330i can only do 155 ?
EDIT: an e36 bmw 328i will only do 145 iirc.. if you people honestly think that your 1.6 16v saxo can do the same speed a 2.8 litre six cylinder with 192 bhp then your crazy..

Unless someone can actually PROVE with a picture of a proven method of top speed then i reckon it's all bull and placebo tbh, i could say right now i got my 306 to do 160mph and gps proves it... doesn't mean it happened tho ?

All the figures that have been mentioned are realistic / believable, to an extent.
160 in a 306 is stupid

Hardly, a 500bhp supercharged GTI-6 with a HDI gearbox could probably get 160 mph, with enough power could actually do 200 theoretically.
I'm sorry 144mph in a standard saxo is not believeable.

If you're going at it like that, then a 500bhp Supercharged Saxo VTS will hit 150mph, with enough power could actually to 180mph theoretically
He proberly wasn't going 144, clocks and SatNav will be out. I would say it would be more like 135 - 140mph.
