Unfortunately i didnt get many pics at all so please feel free to add them here

Just like to say thanks to Kev g and astra nige for sorting it all out, This was actually my first ever rolling road ive been on and will definantly come along to the next group one too.

And my cars actually 17bhp up on standard with just the powerbox :P, which i will be taking orders on in a few weeks, cough cough shamless plug cough cough. Everything else is standard apart from a k+n filter.

I will try and post up a pic of my graph later as im well chuffed how smooth the power curve is considering its not even been remapped to suit its new mod.

[cheekyalex]

Dave will be interesting to see what was causing your 'hiccup' at about 3000rpm

Yes Figz_spi that was my silver corsa.

Man hit by stationary car


Erm these been a mistake,there seems to be a saab engine in here





And here is my little corsa beast lmao

Whats that piece of ****ty box section doing where your inlet manifold shound be lmao

look how close my front tyres are to the floor!!! it actually fell of the rollers when he finshed too much power me thinks




the exhaust on this astra sounded absolutly perfect

Those wheels look stunning on your van dave


everyones favourite metro




astra resonsible for over 400 lbft of tourque

[longeysvxr]

Yer was a gud day my vxr did 250 at the wheels mate 267 at the fly. Not bad realy as I only have a turbo back milltek.

[TomF]

Great pics everyone

Was a good day out and was nice to see a good turn out, thanks again to Kev and Nige for organising the day

I never expected mine to make the figures it did, so was quite shocked when 303 bhp and 329 torques appeared on the screen lmao

[TINTIN]

[TINTIN]

Seriously though, what do your wheel bearings have to do with the rolling road? I bet your still driving the car any way?

i drove it to the RR and back other wise its sat at home as i get a lift to work

[TINTIN]

Fair enough dude

[TomF]

I was shocked at the results from my run, no idea where those figures came from lmao

[Turbo Chris]

its powered by fairy dust tom

[Gaz86]

The Fiesta made 112BHP I have plenty of pics but not sure on quality, I'd just done a 12 hour shift drove a 2 hour drive and froze my ass off lmao

Can't believe that corsa made those figures, then came off the rollers, I'd have been pissed!

[cheekyalex]

Pretty hardcore turning up after a 12 hour shift Gaz, last thing id wanna hear by then is a load of engines revving their nuts of for a few hours.

I was a little suprised with my corsas figures too as ive only had the car a few weeks, with no service history at all and 105,000 miles on the clock. Its made me think twice about putting my x20xev in now though,is it worth all the hassle for an extra 13bhp? Probably still will go for it as its the extra tourqe im after. Do you use your xev as a daily runner Gaz86?

And i would have been pissed off if i had my nice wheels and tyres on the car when it fell of the rollers. Noise it made did make me poo a little bit though.
