what sort of speeds can anyone get out of their gt, because i can get an easy 115 and that was racing a 1.4 pug 106 which i pissed on, and what about 0 - 60 times.

IIRC a GT is geared for a top speed of 125 (give or take a couple of miles an hour) at the limiter with a standard rev limit.
not sure of the standard 0-60, officially about 10-11 secs I think.

it was just some sort of back street garage i only paid £150 for it 3 years ago, but when the back box was knackered i phoned them up and they have gone out of business so no chance of a guarantee.

You should be able to just get an indicated 120 mph on a lightly modded (induction and exhaust etc) GT running standard wheels/tyres.
I can do stainless exhausts which are made to a very high standard (better than most so called custom exhaust franchises) see my section for more details.
