currently stock at the moment, book speed is 135 although i think with a re-map could probably get a few extra from her.

the MK5 TDI book figure is 137 still no where near the ED30 though  :cry:

the final gear in the MK4 GTI's was never that long as the 1.8T was only 140 odd, the R32 on paper is 153, so the same as an ED30 (top end wise)
