Wasn't there a famous R&T or C&D comparison test of the 72/73 T, E and S? What numbers did they get?
my error - I should have looked it up instead of relying on a recollection... p. 91 of the 1972 911S USA Owner's Manual (red cover) states 143 for a manual trans. car. & that would be a coupe as marc points out. Another 20+ mph on top of that would require a serious hp increase (the relation involves hp cubed), and adding the giganto targa air scoop would require even more.
