Why would the top speed increase? A remap doesn't change gear ratios

The actual top speed quoted may not reflect the theoretical top speed as dictated by the gear ratios.
In this case more power results in higher top speed.

The top speed won't be limited by gearing on this model as it won't have the power to hit the limiter in 6th. It will just stop accelerating.

Depends on power achieved by the map, but I guess if it hits around 210 bhp (and maintains power at high revs) maybe somewhere around 140mph? This is assuming the gear ratios are the similar to the 02Q 6 speed fitted to the 2.0tfsi.

For reference the 197bhp FR has a top speed of 142mph and the 240bhp Cupra can hit by 152mph.

I assume you are planning a trip to an autobahn sometime?
