right went today only 2 of us made it

but top blokes and very good equipment,the dastek rolling road set up is very high tech

my car is still leaning out at 6500rpm(really needs mapped)

but at 25psi (will be 30) when sorted it made 456bhp at the fly

some people say they over read,but i honestly dont think so now,as my mates sti wr1 went on and made 330bhp and its factory standard except a small increase in boost,and they roll out the factory on 320bhp
and the car only has 12k on it


defo reccomend them,guys know what they are talking about,evo,scooby specialist i think but their r/road is the best ive ever seen

it shows everything thats going on,injector cycle ect ect,autronic equipment also

you get a full laminated print out with various tables and graphs for everything

Ł50 an hour defo recomend to anyone who is local

If your talking about getting your car live mapped and the launch control and anti lag fitted you would of been cheaper going for the colins ecu.

cause it was spining when it came on boost due to having to borrow a pair of rims off my mate for the rear,cause of my tyre issues and the ones used werent the best

Ł150,000 it cost to put the rolling road bay together

think so for first run

they do 3 runs,im not completly sure about what is says on 2nd run there as i did see 456@fly,and it says 454@fly on one of the runs there

i think they might take an average of the 3

but as everyone says you loose 40-50 bhp as a rule on 2wd,ive also been told that the more bhp you have the more you will loose through the wheels

when my car made 373bhp @wheels on ava rollers it was running 30 psi

as said 25psi yesterday+its got alot to do with the act`s,on the day+the fans they have i suppose

good results Col but very hard to beileve the car looses 100 bhp from fly to wheels.

Judging by your power there and @ AVA and comparing it with mine, it looks like it would made 580 bhp at the fly if i went to those rollers.

Pretty unbelieveable tho

Trouble is Cars hardly ever make the manufactures quoted figures, most cars are atleast 10bhp down on that.
