I took mine to an indicated 156mph but probably was only about 140-145ish actual speed. I think AP1s could go about 165mph topping out but would need a very long downhillish stretch. Not too sure about AP2s. I'm guessing about 155ish for AP2s?

No, this was with the stock gearing. I think top speed with the gears is around 150mph. I don't have the guts to try it anymore. Plus there's no place here that I'd try it. The 156mph was done on the Big Island.
