they arent as bad as some ive heard, although i guess every set of rollers has dodgy power graphs at some point.

Seemed ok for our RR day but some of the torque figures were just plain wrong

motorscope could be cool

they set up my St170 powered mk3 escort
45 dellorto`s and it made 136bhp.......
he didnt rev it past 6000rpm even when i said it went easily to 8k
but he has a reputation for not blowing cars up on his rollers, i guess thats why

wasnt as quick after either
but i was very pleased with how i was treated as a punter
not many places give you that nowdays.

every RR operator gets negative comments nomatter who it is.

keep me posted as i gotta book days off well in advance, and looks like im gonna be working inside Nissan instead of the post soon so be even harder.
