Firstly i hope i am not taking anybodies job off them by doing this! but...
My ford driving mate and i are going to a rolling road in a few weeks to do some power runs

1) simonsr
2) simonsr's mate tom

could look for else where if you wanted? power guessing:
simon_b nova 16bhp woo hoo
simon_b mitsubishi gto 280bhp
simonsr nova would love to see 100bhp if i get my exhaust manifold, but will be happy with 90
tom escort - 90bhp
dan corolla compressor - 218bhp
no worries but he is not gonna be able to come please can we take him off the list
i may be able to get others to come will check this week
my car is now getting stripped so i cannot come no more
sorry i havnt been on here for a bit. i can do 3rd march providing its after 1.30pm as im working until 12pm. is it still going ahead or has it gone wrong. i may have another as my mate has a corsa gsi
GAME OVER....INSERT COINS TO CONTINUE
yes whats happening with this is it still booked
i wouldnt recommend j-p-autotechnics at all because their rollers look past there best and only handle up to 250 bhp approx and the closer you are to that the less accurate they seem to be... i took my standard engined corsa xe on there last year and come out with 192bhp (flywheel)it has a full s/s exhaust system, induction kit and thats it! another 2 tests elsewhere gave me 164bhp (flywheel) and 160bhp (flywheel). A carrado vr6 with similar mods to mine produced 238bhp(flywheel) what are they standard? 190bhp???? with mods 200bhp - 210???
To be fair to the place other cars tested that day producing under 130bhp seemed pritty realistic but thats no bloody good for most people off here is it?
Might be interested in joining you guys if you get something arranged else where, ideally around sheffield would be great!!
