Wow I bet that was a harrowing experience. I found my STi to be much less than stable at high speeds. Not to mention LOUD!!!!

With the stock gearing? I am pretty sure the top of 6th gear is 172 MPH.

Yes, but if the motor is modified to take it, one could always bump the rev-limiter to the desired RPM in order to push the STi to 200 MPH.

At 8rpm redline you would top out at about 196 and at about 209 at 8.5k redline. Thats if you had enough power to get you there.
