174.24, but not for the reasons stated... Most faction traits and most GAs multiply. If they are multiplicative values, they are each multiplied on the current value ratehr than the base. Thus, PW Damage 2 yields a total of 121% base damage, not 120%. Advanced Miners aren't a GA, they're a new ship with a new base speed. So assuming your other numbers are correct...

120 (Base Speed of an Advanced Miner) * 1.2 (Dreg) * 1.1 (Speed 1) * 1.1 (Speed 2)

To my knowledge, no present GA works on a non-multiplier (though technically one could by causing part/ship upgrades rather than the usual GA-style effect). However, certain faction bonuses (Iron Coalition's in particular) are done by modification of the ship or base, not via one of the multiplier fields. As a side note, certain multipliers only work at game start (i.e. can only exist via that field as faction bonuses, and cannot be modified via GA multipliers).

Also...

174.24 mps (120 base(adv miner), x1.2 dreg x1.1 speed1 x1.1 speed2)
would be the correct answer
How are those different?
