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

[rocco16v at netzero.net (L F)]

A taller fifth gear will probably cut about 10mph off your top speed.  If you can use it.
Seriously.

  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).
