If i use wheels that are half the diameter of the stock wheels, then at 195kmph i'll be doing something like 97.5kmph (true speed)

BTW, the Vtec's "true speed" at 195 is 185kmph.

Well if you read overdrive's Vtec test. it says that the Vtec they tested hit 195 kmph on the speedo and at that point the lazer testing device was indicating 185kmph.

There's no real way to calculate your true speed, you'll have to use a sat navigated device to do so. Each car has it's own speedo error.

Yeah...make friends with some cops who have radar guns

or better yet find some1 who has a handheld GPS device.

Or, you could do it the oldfashioned and innaccurate way..... mark two points about a km away from each other on the road. and drive at the constant max speed between them.. while a friend in the car starts a stopwatch at the first point, and stops it at the second! lol the good old days

I just checked this one out recently, Man its a powerhouse!! And you seem to have been extremely busy in your month away from Team-BHP. But as long as its time spent on modifying cars...well....well done!

Drop a line if you are around Bbay anytime, would love to check your Fiat out.
