Volvo 740 Will not pass 190 km

190 km/h? I think that's about as fast as it's going to go, with either transmission. At about that point air resistance becomes a nearly insurmountable barrier. It is a brick, after all.

Out of curiosity, why would you need to go that fast? Are you racing the thing on an oval? If that's your bag, you'll definately want a turbo.
