I don't think 5th has the gearing to make it to 200mph regardless of the power sadly but I'd be happy to be proven wrong :D

Find a downhill airstrip. And wait for a favourable tail wind.

And -25 degrees ambient temp.

Then it should be no problem.

Just had a quick blast on this website - http://www.apexgarage.com/tech/gear_ratios.shtml - and although my figures are a little rough I reckon you could you know, gearing wise anyway!

Mine wasnt mapped and it hit the limiter at 175-180 ish ( I only glanced because I was more interested In looking at the road ) and it got there alarmingly quickly and was still pulling!! I think without the limiter and on a long enough stretch of road 200mph would be achievable on even stock power

You'd need to find the drag co-efficient to work this out properly. I don't think it will make it though, especially given the distance thats available on most of the vmax style runways. On the vmax all time fastest list there doesn't seem to be that many that have actually broken the 200 barrier though - and they all look like they are running 600 plus as standard. The exception is the MRC S4 widebodies and RS4s.

...thought the B5 needs a longer 6th gear to achieve that...

You got to remember the 10% on the speedo
So 200 mph on your clocks will prob be 180 mph real speed

Mine was just over 5mph higher on the clock compared to 180mph on the GPS on new stock size tyres.

Just an update
Went to MRC today for stage 2 remap
Health check turned out ok except a slight leak on intercoolers but said they would be ok
Turned out that the pre cats are still on the car aswell
First run turns out the car was already mapped but a bad map cause the car was only producing 426 bhp
So doug put the original map on and it did 445 bhp
Which was better but there was a problem with the torque converter not locking on
Then after MRC map it only managed 480 bhp but turned out that one of the intercoolers had blown
So had to leave it there so costing me double of my budget:-((( will up date you next sat when I get her back :bash:

They used to be great cars mate, but just getting very tired and problematic now.
Ruins the whole ownership experience :(

Hope you get her sorted in top form and get her back soon :thumbs:
