I agree, the cooling fans are very important and we will hopefully choose wisely before purchasing them, really looking forward to getting stuck in!

thanks for showing interest
Fair play.

Its just a few RR seem to have the capability of measuring huge BHP but 1 single fan which means ACT of a hideous nature as soon as the car comes on boost. Will be interesting to see what you have

Congratulations mate - i think this move is long overdue and you know you've got some longstanding customers and friends who will always bring their cars to you wherever you are

Will there be a 'warming' party to celebrate the launch?

I beleive that a Corvette with twin turbos ran over 1800 bhp at the rear wheels recently on the same dyno so i doubt there will be many cossies that will truely "test" the dyno's capabilities

They haven't got the dyno in yet but it's expected in the next few weeks. They're still setting themselves up with all new equipment, etc. Give Chris a call on 01895 206777
