Ok i hope you where doing this test on a closed road. If you did this on the highway you are the most dumbest person on here. AND YOU SHOULD GET BANDED FROM THIS SITE.

You know how many lifes are at risk when your doing this kinda test on public roads. Because you know damn well you did it on the street.

Hell, doesn't anything qualify as an airstrip when you're doing 194?

Steve should get BANDED for this, much more entertaining than him being banned for letting us know his current top speed. I think you should get a BAND that reads "I cant drive 195".

I think the Norris Designs short wheel base evo just managed 202 mph at a top speed run at the Ten of the Best competition in the Uk. I think he is making like 900 hp or so.

Don't know the highest speed an Evo has gone though.

for evo9 5 sp its 195.7 and evo8 5sp is 206.6 and for MR is 212.5, that's another reason ppl overlook , that the evo9 gear ratio is closer which make the car faster

the car was at 8900 in 5th gear, so unless my tach is off as well I think its accurate

I've gone 172 mph @ 8000 rpm in 5th gear on my IX. I think 194 mph @ 8900 would be about right.
