Raised rav limits LET's can hit 170mph.

If the LET had a F40 box attached to it it could top 228mph

Standard Vauxhall box says 152mph - probably about right when you take into consideration the speedo incaliberation.

But the gearing will let it hit 182mph - if the engine is strong enough and you had enough room.

Yep remember this is all to do with GEARING - even with serious mods it probably wouldnt hit the limiter anyway.
