Post: RE: gti6 high rpm flat spot

Out of curiosity what does the speed in 6th gear top out at with the standard limiter? Anyone know? A friend of mine had a 410bhp 6 until recently and I'm sure that's been over 160mph.

I think I'm right in saying an engine should start if it has fuel and spark, unless it has no compression. Does it turn over okay when you turn the key? Apparently the clearance between the pistons an...
