C55 Top Speed?

Just out of curiosity what is the top speed of the c55 with limiter removed? I use to own an e60 m5 and that went up to 219mph i believe.

C55 AMG T with Kleemann K2 and some stuff: 414 hp and 576Nm :-)
I´ve heard from a reliable source here on the forum 187,5 mph (GPS), 300 km/h.
Seen a video on the tube too the same mph with only limiter removed.

I´ve done myself >165 mph but had to back off due to traffic. It was still pulling hard up there
with stage 1 at that time.

I've had mine up to 167mph and I had to shut it down because I was running out of road.

hey austin does that Tcu tune allow you to do throttle blips when downshifting? I see you have that tune. I dont understand why they didn't put that on this car when they built it.

155mph limited. Removed I bet you could go 170'ish or so. Stock of course! With mods depending how extensive 200mph maybe give or take.

if i'm not mistaken;

max. top end speed, will depends to the diff. final rear gear,

want to go more than (187 mph>>199 mph), have to consider about lowest diff. Ratio,,

such as;- (2.65>>2.47>>>2.24)..
