Sounds about right to me. My 8v was a little lower, but not by much. Different gearboxes. I changed my fifth gear sprockets for those from a 4E gearbox. Now I cruise at 70-80 (My speedo is in KMH) at 3200rpm.

i thought my clutch may have a problem but i guess with your feedback its nothing to worry about. what will the 16v do top end? ive not pushed it past 100 on a private road of course!

Should do 120 with a little pushing.
