wow thats a long stretch of pavement he found. =)

 

[KoolWhip]

Yeah its real. Mine looked the same way when I hit 160, we get to 140 pretty quick after that the power starts to fall off a bit. But yeah looks real to me.

remember, most likely @ least 10-15% slower in "non-vw" mph

I love how every comment on youtube is always saying how fake something is and can never be possible

real, but not accurate.

That is data I took when I did a top speed run a few weeks ago. At 165 indicated speed, actual (GPS verified) speed is only 147. Extrapolating that line out and continuing the pattern of error finds that at an indicated 180, actual speed is near 153.

^^^ good info :]
it looked real to me. i've taken mine to 152, but got off the throttle cause miami cops are not that nice when it comes to speeding. heh hee

 

[Debo]

that thing was movin

 

[Lou_Y2mK5]

I hope he had some good tires to support those speeds! BOOM you know.

 

[DarkstaR]

real

 

[Gabster]

i wonder what his got that was able to move up to 180mph?
i say all types of bolt ons..
what do you guys think?

 

[AndorGLI]

i dont think its reall b/c how is it that there are random cars at the end of the video......?

but u never know.

 

[mortygt140]

very questionable 1)where has he got a stretch of road that long to get that speed, cos it would take a long time to get that speed and 2)Has meat said an indicated 180 doesn't actually mean that unless your in a police car where there all calibrated. I do know the focus st that pumaspeed have did a gps indicated 175mph with 340bhp mmmmmmmm very questionable

 

[Gabster]

check this one out... this is the same guy with the same video, but with better quality.
