What kind of mods do you have? For a stock FC, thats prob about right, considering its age. I got mine to 145 or so on the speedo, but that was with a rebuild and some mods.

MY S5 coupe would push 140 according to the speedo. But assuming yours is original, I wouldnt expect much more from it. Get a rebuild and a streetport.

Its not because of the accadent, our 5th is just too tall to accelerate in.

My '91 S5 Coupe with an APEX'i intake and RB true duals will do 135mph, more if I'm patient...like maybe 140 or so....in 4th gear.
Put it in 5th gear and I begin to lose speed if I'm going over 100mph.
