What's the fastest can ever take your Scirocco? - more numbers

[16volt at scirocco16v.com (16volt)]

I can set my DTA ECU to 14,500 and see what happens? Anyone wanna buy me a
new 2002cc motor for fun?

I think it's time to bump the rev limiter from 7500 to 9g's on the SDS 
and get myself a copilot to verify just exactely how fast we can take 
her.   Anyone with a fast calibrated car to follow in the Bellingham WA 
area?
