1: The KJ is a brick. No matter how many times I tried I could not get past 121mph on the autobahn on a 5% downgrade.

2: The germans have a Premium Diesel fuel. It is way more money and after 20 miles of driving I can feel a big difference. The engine runs quieter and the performance is better. Not chipping better but you notice a difference. 1.21 euro a liter as opposed to 1.13 a liter.

I've only taken it to the limiter which is 180km/h and she was at 3000rpms in 5th.

Heh, that's not too bad. The premium Diesel is about $6.06 per gallon after you do the conversion. And we here in the US complain about $3 per gallon fuel.

On the Autobahn I cruise at 100-110. Due to traffic I only get spurts for about 10 15 minutes. When I am out driving after 2am then I can normally cruise at that speed for 30-60 at a time. I think I can get more also with a straight through design muffler system but have not found anything I like yet. Everything comes with a chrome tip, I just want a plain tip that looks OEM but in 3" if I can find it.
