    The Garmin GPS in my car has highest attained speed locked in at 182 and that was done by Von Morgan when the previous owner had the car. I have IPS dyno sheets showing 400 awhp and 430 tq. So how much HP would be needed for the extra missing 18 mph?

    edit - All I can say is I asked Von about the high tracked speed on the garmin screen and he told me it was he, not the previous owner that put it there.

    2nd edit - I found this while looking for some info. The BSF Ion Red Line weighs 3900 lbs, so it is the same as a 3000GT and its .35 Cd is slightly better than a 3S, so in the real world in a 3900 lb car it takes a bit over 600 hp to get the 200+ mark it seems. http://www.modified.com/features/040...e/viewall.html
