115mph out my old 12v, that was down a hill on private land of course. Well it said 115, i may of rounded it up from 111mph and that probably means i was going about 99mph.

The quickest I drove mine was probably about 85ish. Before I'd passed my test my dad drove it to pvs 08 for me, 105 on the clocks to keep up with the convoy Sounded like it was going to blow up!

A Corsa 1.6 16v struggles to sit nicely at 105mph I hate to think what these 1.0 12v are doing at those speeds.

yeah m8 it helps wid 0-60 as spline are different so makes car go faster as wheels turn more with big spline. Works like a superbcharger. Best mod i done like.

ive had 115 on clocks out of my 1.0 12volt, was rather scary as i had to turn while doing that speed and the car just didnt want to turn. does 92mph in 4th gear will sit at 100 no problems, just plotting along.

I once had 115 Mph on a long down hill.
Although on flat roads, i think it would get up to 100Mph, but it would take a very long time to get there.

i would rather find another way of spending £350 on my car than getting a re-map that gives an extra 5hp (we used to do re-mapping at work and i thought i would have a laugh and see how much it was for mine)
