The same as a standard one as the gearing is the same, around 135 - 140 mph...

so does the map just give it extra lift as I had a aum last year with the standard 150bhp and it was quite flat
this is a agu with its more bhp map running 200 bhp and what a difference in lift but never really over 80mph.

Yeah the map will give you more bhp and more importantly more torque so the car feels a lot more lively. The 0-60 dash will be quicker due to the increased performance and boost pressure but the top end won't change much if at all.

Dubcruiser is right that the top speed wont change, however with 150bhp it would take alot longer distant to reach it.

I reckon you would get more than 140mph my ZR160 was running 260bhp and had that off the clock which was over 150mph private runway of course  :grin:
