Try it and let us know but I don’t think it will get you to 200km/h, maybe very close. You should also try a step1 remap with a soft tuning of the exhaust line like a downpipe with a 200 cells catalytic and GPF off. The idea is to optimise what you already have that is fair enough to have real fun with this car.

Series 3 was quite cool except of the immense amount of quality issues it suffered from. From series 4 on (european version with t-jet engine) fiat/fca introduced a new function into the ecu to deliver a full 3 seconds long total power failure on power request to prevent the engine/exhaust noise becoming too loud. So dependend on the will of the ecu you lost 3 seconds when you shift from 2nd to 3rd, 3 sec. again from 3rd to 4th and another 3 sec. from 4th to 5th.
