Not with a bluefin fitted they didnt

But Dans right, they had 3 std ST170's and 2 std FRS's and the 3 ST170's all made 170 bhp, and the 2 FRS's made 214 and 217bhp, if that isnt accurate then what is?

Its worth going jsut for the sausage sarnies

When I used to take mine there I got treated so well. Not many companies offer the PE level of service. One time Dickie gave me a free set of NGK's for no apparent reason

as Matt said, standard cars are more than welcome, the more the merrier and the more cars - the cheaper it will be for all of you, nice bit of organising by you tony , free tea and coffee and bacon rolls will be provided should the day materialise, for those doubters the dyno gets calibrated every month and we are currently +- 1 bhp on standard spec cars accurate so if anyone does not make the numbers on the day, hard cheese, get your car sorted!!!, we will be measuring the power and torque of each car, boost pressure will be monitored as well as AFR and we will advise you of any problems that could cause damage to your engine, I really enjoy the dyno days, its always a good laugh and its great to meet so many people and obviously meet yourselves.

Are they the ones you gave me in summer?

Shame you won't be home for this. What do you reckon Keith? Take the grey one and see if it gets more than when it was there last

Linz,
The plugs I gave you were 9's I got from the Rally shop that used to be in Kelsall. PE always used to use NGK 8's.
That reminds me you still owe me big for the spotlights!
