Those with a 300D Turbo Manual Conversion - Top Speed?
Has anyone with manual 300D conversions verified top speed with a GPS unit?
I'd like to see some top speed numbers. Anyone have numbers and proof?

Depends on the rear end ratio more than anything.

At some point the final gear ratio is going to overwhelm the motor due to air resistance and inertia of the car so I was wondering what others were getting.

You are on the verge of over-thinking an irrelevant point......
 If 105 is the question, is 110 the answer? Are you near an Autobahn that we're not familiar with?

I wanted to see what others were getting so that I can see where my car lands on the map whenever it's complete. No Autobahns around here just a lot of German towns....Kiel, New Berlin, Rhinelander, Germantown...etc

, it's too damn snowy and cold to start the grill up over at my in-laws. We kill a lot of people here on the roads which scares me. It's tough to tell who's drunk and who's dring like an idiot (cause many do yammering on their cell phones). You know it's bad when the paper runs a column on the front page for a whole month.

110mph give or take for any diesel 123 sedan without pump mods.

I know the OM617 engines very considerably in condition and that the auto transmissions sap power since they are non lockup designs.

I did 110 in my NA euro. I have yet to hit that in the 85 as I have no pyro and am skeered. I have hit 100+ easy though.

Of course the 4-speed stick and 4-speed automatic are both 1:1 in 4th?
