Anyway, no idea... it's probably governed by the ECU in which case you can't do anything about it.

180km/h is fast enough to get your car impounded on sight and your license revoked without a trial on any road where I live.

Even in Russia corruption going down.. from now on much more money you'll need to escape the punishment lol=) if you drive in Moscow more then 120 km'h - no more driver's license atleast for 4 months .....
Shortly, you I will be terminated by militia =)
In real life - 100$ - and no more problems from cops =)) corruption =|

I have 200 km'h limit ! Why do you have 180 ? Japan?

It's very apparent you have not modified too many cars in your life.
