Friday - what's the fastest you've ever taken your Scirocco?



I definitly passed 125mph the other day, I just about hit the 130 mark when 
i saw a Z28 Super Trooper sitting in the middle of the highway trying to 
catch speeders in the other direction.  I dipped off at the next exit and 
crapped my pants.  I got lucky that day(cheese ball line-sorry).  Either way 
I think a combination of a 50mm intake, Euro spec cam, and back cut valves 
really helps the top end. I can't Imagine what a taller Fifth gear will 
do(next project).
