I know on my car I have seen 283 kph via my GPS with my flash tune of 380 PS. That was 6,300 or 6,300 rpms(I forget) in 6th (I have a 6MT with 225's255's PS3's). You have to realize the speedo is way off. I also have seen 6,400 rpms but I can't say how fast I was going.

A stock 135i is limited to 210 kph without the sport package. With the M-sport(includes option #840 speed sync) it is limited to 250 kph. Even so... my car has the M-sport and even though the speedo read 155 mph (250 kph) my car was only traveling 240 kph according to my GPS.

I am told a tuned 135i can see 290 or 295 kph. Probably over 300 kph going down hill on a long straight autobahn.
