Mitch, I think that it is possible for this car to get pretty close to 110 mph, certainly it will exceed 100. My '85 wagon with 320k miles on it, with same engine and transmission as this car, has reached an indicated 107 mph in 5th gear (will go faster in 4th gear but I didn't know that before and haven't had an opportunity to find out how much faster since). I've reason to think that my speedometer is pretty accurate, but I haven't 'calibrated' it against GPS yet. If the EGR valve has been disabled, a reasonable estimate is a gain of ~5hp (comparing info from '85 TDM for engine power figures in countries that didn't require EGR - they got an extra ~5hp). The sedan will be lighter than my wagon (lighter still than a US spec car which has an automatic transmission and heavier bumpers).
Also, do I see an ABS pump in the engine bay? Unfortunately, the car is beginning to rust - I think I see bubble on the leading edge of the RR fender, and there is a rust stain on the front bumper. Also, the jack points look a little ragged - very hard to tell in the poor lighting conditions used to photograph the car so that it is very tough to see the lower body parts. Will be fun to see how much it goes for! Max Very respectfully, /s/ LCDR Meade M.
