Here's just shy of 170 w/ minor mods (they list at the beginning)

There are several others similar...seems 160s for stock, 170s for modded is common

If you can reach redline in an AP1 at 9000 in 6th, you'd be at 165.4mph

Unless they up the RPM or use a longer gear, there's no way to get to 170. With average speedometer error percentages, it makes sense that the speedo reads 170+...but the car speed would not be that high.
