Well, actually that's the fastest I have gone, but it's not the actual top speed.

I cant imagine it just hitting 109 though, according to http://www.parkers.co.uk/choosing/sp...d=295&id=13185
it hits 121. not sure if thats true. Was also looking to fit a nice induction kit to it, any ideas on a good one? cheers

Ive hit 127 on the highway late at night. about 135 going downhill but that doesnt count as far as true top speed goes.

parkers technical data is always wrong, they get it close but are wrong on all sorts of things like bhp, top speed, 0-60, weight etc etc... for most honda's and other cars for that matter. Your cars top speed should be 125 mph.
