got around to re-calibrating my friends spedo in his 2g, with his 17's his was GPS confirmed about 5-6mph off and his tach (turbo timer confirmed) is around 200 rpm or so off.
Howwould your buddies speedo/tach being off effect mine? Yes the 2nd gen's did top out that far but you weren't making any real power. With a stock t25 the thing was nothing but a hair dryer at those high of rpms.

He said why, he put on 17's and the overall height of the wheel/tire combo was to far off.

Yes perhaps his combo was off.

with upgrading from 16's to 17's your going to be off something no doubt, you can't say you were not unless you borrowed someones GPS to check it.. maybe you could even do it through DSM link, I'm not sure how that compares to vagcom.

chips shouldn't affect speed.... even with 500hp, we are still gonna goUNDER 60mph in 2nd gear...it has something to do with the ratio or maybe chips change that too(who knows)... and the answer to the question on a 225 roadster is
1st= 30
2nd= 50
3rd= 70
4th= 90
5th=110
6th = 140(max)
that's what i usually get when i drive fast..and i never really went up to 140mph.. i just heard that's the max.

chip raises your redline, you should be able to sweek out 7-10mph more out of the extra 300-400rpm increase.

I can get to 64mph in the TT in second gear - with the APR chip. - I think I can get to 85/90 in 3rd. - but I could be wrong. - but for sure the 2nd gear is right.

92mph just before redline in 3rd gear with APR chip 64mph before redline at 64mph.

keep in mind I get to these speeds sooner if I short shift because of the K03 turbo loosing boost. - Just saying.

I need to fix my boost gauge.
When I had it working... I didn't boost in 3rd until about 55 rpms, then it started to fall off shortly there after.
Hopefully all of these numbers change by tomorrow afternoon!
