looking at the figures i've got 101mph is max for 3rd with the M56H, but think my tyre size is bigger than standard (my box will do 113mph, thats without the raised rev-limiter lol)

225/50/16@6500rpm. He should be able to get the 100mph from third then with it nudging the limiter

Although, you can't compare it to most other 850s as 4th in james car is totally different than 4th on the standard box.

Epic James epic!

Cant wait to see how it performs properly on a road. Those twisting B-Roads must be fun.

Yeah too true.

Perhaps dodging pot holes would have been a better comment?

Thought I might as-well stick a clip of my old Saab 9-3 Aero on just for reference, Custom stage 3+ mapped by my friend and myself oh and still on the stock 15T turbo too...

You want flexibility? 300LB/FT @ 2000RPM....

60-100mph/70-120mph in 4th gear...
