Corrado Euge 0 Posted September 17, 2008 Just wondering if the gear ratios on a 16v gearbox are the same as VRs? My 16v runs out of puff at 125, but wondering if it shud be faster. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Toad 0 Posted September 17, 2008 Nope. Check the knowledgebase for a definitive list of ratios. My valver was still pulling at 130 the other day, so I'd expect a good 135-140mph Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
colinstubbs 0 Posted September 18, 2008 Book speed is 130mph for 16v (1.8 anyhow) and most speedos under-read by about 5mph so an indicated 125mph isn't bad! Try and borrow a GPS or GPS equiped bit of kit and double check your speedo. Mine is 4-5mph under Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
