    Saab vs Vauxhall Dyno Shootout at Powerstation!! 21st April, £35 per car

    **Have already spoken to nige-p (http://www.migweb.co.uk/forums/membe...e-p_16894.html) about this and he's going to ask the mods to move it to the relevant forum**

    Not really a serious Saab vs Vauxhall day! More a bit of a fun day on the rollers

    I'm organising a Saab & Vauxhall Dyno Day on the UKSaabs forum back with Powerstation on the 21st April, Price per car is £35. Thought I'd make this one a bit more interesting and make it a joint Saab/Vauxhall day as we've got a few VX owners on UKSaabs running Saab engines. This is limited to 30 slots so 15 Saab and 15 Vauxhall. (you DONT need a Saab engined car to come!!! All are welcome!)

    Powerstation can plot Power, Torque and Boost but cant plot AFR, only monitor from inside the car.
    First car on the rollers is usually 9am, we should all get a print out at the end and then if you fancy it were off the the pub for some lunch and a pint!

    Running order will be sorted later to the date, if you want an early or late slot just let me know and I'll try and accommodate for everyone.

    15 slots only on this guys so don't miss out on a good day.

    Just add your name to the list below and PM me if there's any questions. I'll update this and the UKSaabs forum with any changes etc.

    Cheers, Dave

    I cant attend this now due to work commitments but will still be organising it on here and UKSaabs.....so its still on

    Gutted I cant make this as it'll be a good one

    There's limited slots left now guys, UKSaabs has 17 names on the list (but that might go up or down as we always get one or two drop out/come last minute!)

    Powerstation can accept 30 cars so going off the lists there's 6 slots left available then thats it full up.

    Me too. Nova has had around 20 power runs this week, so the whole day would be pretty pointless, and only risk damage before the action day.

    We usually get there around 8:30 mate and first car goes on around 9-9:30
    No particular running order as some guys are coming from miles & miles away! I still can't make it, just can't get my shifts covered.

    Spoke to Powerstation yesterday and it's still on, plenty of slots left available. Also have 2 or 3 Fords coming.
