It's at 6,600-6,700 I think. It cost him about $4k. And I got it up to 155mph(wouldn't go more)

^ there are aftermarket software that will raise the rev limit to 7000rpm. maybe that'll take the car up to 165mph.

Exactly, Almost all German cars are SPEED limited to 155 mph.

Possible, but that's also the rev limiter since it only lets you get to that in each gear
