I think Ste mistook it for 2nd It will do about 60 in second yeah. Third on mine is pretty much bang on 90, and as Ste said, 110 in 4th.

I used this a while ago while my speedo wasnt working. You will need to know your final drive though. Pretty sure the F20 and F28 are the same ratios but with an extra gear added on. For my F28 the final drive is 3.72 so give that a try

I'm confsed about boxes now though, i thought the F20 was geared better for top end over the F16.
But....my 2.0 (with F16) Does (according to speedo round my test track) 70 in 2nd, 110 in 3rd and then 4th goes to about 130 Is my speedo completely fubbard

depend's on the f16 fro..
there's the normal one which is basical the same ratio's as an F20..
then there's the F16cr, with has closer ratio's so quciker accel & lower top speed
