My Rev limiter was set to 7400rpm. I think with a stock rev limit and the right size tires and power level you can hit 200mph on a stock rev limit.
I'd say power level has little influence on top speed in this case, just how quickly you get to it. At stock power level, the car could push through the wind faster if it were not gear limited. Tire size could make a difference, but I doubt much unless you actually change rim size. The rev limiter and gearing are likely the main factors to determine the top speed. My guess is most breaking 200mph are doing so by lifting the rev limiter as you have In top gear, every 100rpm should be good for another ~2.75mph all other factors remaining equal.

If you are coming to Austin on 22-23 June, and are interested in visiting one of the other tracks on your off day, please see below & reply to this post ASAP, or PM me, so I can get an idea on numbers. TIA!
======================================
NOTE: This is in no way associated, or sponsored by Nissan or COTA or NAGTROC; nor, do I benefit from organizing this. I'm just trying to get you another track-oriented outing while down in Austin.
I need a quick indication of interest from those who would participate in either, not both of the following, i.e. only one of these will get organized:

- Harris Hill Road open track day: This would be $150 for the entire day. You would have to use your own car, have a helmet, & would attend as the guest of a member. This is a great driving & spectating track with a clubhouse, too, so driver’s guests would be welcome to watch/hang out. See www.harrishillroad.com
I would love to do this on Saturday, but it depends on when. Can we arrive and leave whenever? Or would we have to commit to be there all day. We will be arriving laaate Friday night and not sure I want to get up at the butt-crack of dawn on Saturday morning. Also, my girl and I are planning to be a Congress St Bridge at dusk for the bat flight. But if I can pay $150 and show up for mid-morning to late afternoon drive at Harris Hill, I'd be up for that.

no just 70... i hate road trips so you guys can have that.. its taking me 2 hrs 39 mins to get to Austin from NC friday afternoon lol
Does that 2hrs 39mins include getting to the airport early, waiting to board, taxi, travel to and from airports? No doubt it will still be quicker, but air travel is such a hassle these days, i actually prefer driving in most cases.
