240km/h...although i wouldnt advise doing this too often and then putting your foot on the stock brakes.

does it go faster any faster

Of course.

You just need to strap a few jet engines on the roof & hang on for dear life whilst you break the sound barrier & then plough into the side of a mountain & destroy both yourself & your car.

Why in this country would you want to go faster then 110km/h anyways ? You get less penalty for murder here.

I saw a monkey sniff his finger after sticking it up his ass on youtube. Didn't make me want to try it though.

lol don't worry. We're just having a laugh :)

It would probably be more to do with drag and downforce than outright power at that speed (I'm not too experienced with that kind of speed and the physics of it though).

otherwise N/A.. but i dont see why it can't be TT'ed..

talking about VW R32.. alot of them have been giving me the shits around the northside area.. they just kept on wanting to whoop my ass.. but then they get surprised that i keep up with them around the corners.. and literally lose them but i just stop my own foot from pressing ont he accelerator too much...

There are twin turbo sixes and then there are twin turbo sixes. Saying that a Legnum should be able to do something just because another TT 6 can do it is like strapping a turbo onto your Hyundai Excel and saying that it should be able to keep up with a 1980s Formula 1 car. They're both 1.5 litre turbos, after all...

I 'tested' my car and got beyond what the speedo would show.
Loved the fact that it changed into 5th at 180 and just kept going

I reckon I've done 240 in mine, though it's hard to tell as the speedo only goes to 180... the needle was under the trip meter!! It actually still had a lot more to go. The theoretical top speed if you go by the gear ratios is listed on club VR4 somewhere, it was like nearly 300 for the autos...
