I was looking for something else A2 related and came across this which is somebody getting up to 218km/h (135 mph) in an FSI. 210km/h seemed easy but suspect the last 8km/h was probably down hill.
I accept the speedo is probably over reading a bit, 4th to 5th change @ 7000rpm with Vmax @6000 rpm in 5th. I’m assuming a standard box here as I don’t think it would achieve that with longer ratios.
I’ve watched a few times and it fascinates me despite it being a 10yr old video and only showing an instrument cluster.
I’d like to try that on an unrestricted autobahn in my FSI as it’s probably never ever been anywhere near that speed.
