Talking Hennesey?
They did like 160 something in a video when they first got the car and say they didnt touch it yet..

Cool! IIRC, top speed (limiter disabled) for a stock C7 is supposed to be around 190mph!

Yeah

Also read a 185mph claim... who knows, but surely there's more room above that 176mph vid... rpm-wise & speed-wise.

Heard they hit 190mph on a Manual
also I am sure it is different between all the models.. manual or auto and non Z51 to Z51

Manual Z51
6500 213 mph
RPM 5th Gear

Manual Non Z51
6500 204 mph
RPM 5th Gear

Auto Z51
6500 223 mph
RPM 5th Gear

Auto Non Z51
6500 238 mph
RPM 5th Gear

I dont think 5HP from Exhaust makes any difference so
I would think the Manual Non Z51 would have the highest Top speed since its 5th gear is the shortest. Tigher Gear a little more TQ and at higher RPM so more HP.
