^ Less agressive than the red face shows though.
This thread was screwed up by everyone posting in it a long time ago.
Damn impressive with the 175 in that LT1 how freakin' big of a cam did you shove in that thing?
A4's have a damn good top speed.

Interesting thread, what have we learned.
stock these cars will do 170 w/330rwhp.
500rwhp will get you to 200
850rwhp will get you there in 1 mile.
2000hp will get you there in 1/4.
I would say they are all around grate cars.
and everyone and there mom has a vett.

Will an A4 even be able to pull 200 in overdrive? With the 3.23's bc i know that 135mph is bout the tops of 3rd so when it shifts to 4th or OD then it can go 65mph more after shifting from 3rd to 4th 
I know ive been 155mph but i can't remember what RPM i was at.

While it is possible with some extra power, I would look into some aerodynamic improvements to keep the front tires planted on the ground. I have found that these cars get light on the front tires at higher speeds (especially with a cross wind) and that is not exactly confidence inspiring. And yes there was a lot of crap in here with a few well thought out and researched responses.
FADI, what do you have up your sleeve??? Now you have me wondering what you are up to with this line of questioning. Your Z06 not enough?

I believe everything except for the 170 mph with 330 hp, rwhp even.

I hit 155 in 5th with my z28. I was at around 4500. Im goin to dyno my car this weekend, I have K&N FIPK, Custom 3" single dynoma exhaust 160* stat. So anywyas 155 and the car was still pulling pretty nice. Then again the car was pretty much sitting on the floor at the time, with the Auto X setup where my car is slammed to the ground LOL

Why not? The most stock C5 go in Germany on the 177-185 mph-range on the GPS! My stock A4 Formula go up to 52xx rpm with 3.23 and new 245/50/16 and is in the 175 mph range on the calculator

I've never heard of a stock C5 going over 175 in real testing, I have heard of their windows being sucked out of the sill/seal at 170, just under their top speed. I'm sure with a tailwind those speeds are not out of the question.

All video testing I have seen shows the C5 maxxing at the 172-174 range.
163.5 for the Aston Martin DB7
175 for the Porshe 911.
177.6 for the Ferrari 355 F1.
179.4 for the Lotus Esprit V-8 Turbo
192.6 mph for the Dodge Viper GTS thats a 450 hp 490 ft/lbs torque 1998 model.
No way the Z28 tops out at 170-175 stock and 175-185 with bolt-ons.
