That's pretty much one of the rumors that has been floating around since 2.0.

You can easily get above 600 with ramp assisted BHops, but you'll drop right back down to 480 pretty rapidly without more ramp to help you out. The very nature of the BHop in this game wants to make you go 480, and no style can change that. You can go over this speed, but the second you touch the ground it shoots back down to it, or very close to it.

Remember to test this on any map that has a 100% flat surface (ff_dm, for example). A good place to test it is up on top of the arena.
