The TT, both coupe and roadster is factory governed to 130. The conti tires that come on it are rated to 130, thats why the car is limited to that. Chip it, and the governer is removed. You CAN get a little more out of it than 130 stock, I've done it with my A4, its a big flat ending in a downhill, I hit 130 just as i started the downhill, and it shot up to 135 before the fuel cut out. I've also set my cruise at 125, but after a few minutes of that, you confuse the ABS, and you'll get a ABS light that only turns off once the cars been turned off.
I've yet to get my chipped car over 130, I need a better flowing intake than stock, the car is gasping for air at those high revs.

The 180 must be governed at 130 mph(when it was stock I still got my 225 up to 140 mph), but the 225 is at 150 mph, according to the book.

I agree the wing could be bigger.
I've been hunting around for a larger spoiler for a while. still haven't found one that doesn't look ricy
which is what i want to stay far away from.

Before I was chipped I ran a 06 GT Mustang for about a mile and I hit about 132 and then shifted into sixth gear and didnt pull anymore, but I think the Stang is governed at about 128 so I beat him to say the least. I havent topped it out since chipped im waiting on a new clutch and FMIC and exhaust before I go doing that again. YEA!

RE: How fast have you gone in your TT
Im pretty sure im gona go with a SPEC clutch they look pretty good im gona hit up the stage 2 or stage 2 plus with the aluminum flywheel, I am wanting about 350 hp max out of my motor(flywheel) (without changing the turbo) so im thinking of getting something that can hold about 400 foot pounds of torque. I want to retain the drivablity of it since its my grocery getter.
