Hit 159 mph in my stock '04 A4!!
On the way home from work this morning there was a nice long stretch of highway with absolutely no cars ahead for a couple of miles at least(only endangering myself). I was rolling along at 75-80 and I decided to see what my stock LS1 GTO A4 is capable of. I expected her to stop at 155 but no she kept on till 159 and then I guess the speed limiter shut her down. Talk about a rush!! She was smooth as silk too. It felt like she could do 150+ forever.
I can only imagine how the LS2 with an extra 50 hp is pulling at these speeds.
