Top Speed 170 Kph (at 3000 RPM in 5'th[speed limiter kicked in])

suposivly is 205 hp stock, but ive seen dynos that say about 180.
so totaling they would say i should get a 50 hp gain from what ive done. using math that means my X should be at 255 at the flywheel, how every, around 224 on the pavement.

here's some photos:
