Mine, Pete Harrisons & Pauls from RSOC Devon Groups Series 1s lined up at Fast Ford rolling road day at Alan Jefferys yesterday


My S1 on the rollers, only running 7psi on the day due to a sh@gged -31 actuator & amal valve so was only kicking out 140.1bhp @ the flywheel (Should be 145 @ the road wheels!)


Reading of 115mph on the rollers @ 4950rpm on 7psi


My nice shiny, bling bling engine bay

i love S1's and that is a fine example. its just a shame about the towing eye cover, although i read somewhere that you can by replacments (obviously not ford, but........)

 

have you got any more pics of the day,i put my cos on the rollers but didnt get any pics of it.good turnout though

 

Which one was your Cossie?

 

Looking good mate. Get a new -31 and u will be sorted!!

Oh, and a towing eye cover

 

the one with no number plate on the front,i rekon those rollers are out,my mates standard clio v6 only had 200bhp at the fly and 182 lbs of tork(sp).

 

pic's look great m8. looks wicked with all three in a line

Tracey x

 

Alans rollers only go up to 200bhp, thought the Clio was running 235bhp


That one?

 

Thats the one matey ,if the rollers only go up to 200bhp how did he figure out mine was 255bhp I rekon add about 20-30bhp and it would be right,he did say it was good power for the boost(16psi) yours should be a beast when its sorted

 

The roller display only goes up to 200bhp but he was able to read higher than that.

Alan's now on the lookout for a 4wd set of rollers

Hope the S1 will be a beast, should've had 145 @ the wheels, dunno how to work out what that'd be at the flywheel.

Needs a hybrid & piper 285T cam kit & intercooler next year when I have money again

 

What boost are you running,with your spec it should be around 200 when you get the -31 and amal valve sorted,good luck in your quest for power

 

Rollers aren't that much out,with mine there was only a couple of bhp/ft lbs difference between AJ and Tipton St. john.

 

Its good to know there not that much out then ,ive spent abit of money on mods and only got a 50bhp gain over standard what car did you have there m8?

 

Wasn't there at this run,it was back in the summer.Got a Nissan but appreciate quick cars,which is why i'm a tourist here.

 

On the day she was only holding 7psi, should be running 15psi

 

very nice m8

 

very nice mate

 

Good looking car and spec you've got there mate, 141bhp tho - get that actuator sorted!

 

A very nice car dude
Have some pics from the engine???

 

nice and clean

 

One pic of the engine bay in all its shinyness

Still haven't sorted out the actuator or amal valve
Lack of funds at the moment!

But I did manage to pick up a fibreglass replacement towing eye cover for £5 (Not mint but usable)...

...but the front valence that it clips onto is so out of shape that it won't fit!!

Needs a new kit anyway so I'll get the front valence with that
