Great day :D Bloody freezing though lol.

Shame about the problems with the rollers at the end of the day but lovely to meet everyone.

Slightly disappointed with my figures but well pleased with my torque curve :)

Thanks again Dave for organising it

Have got the Abbott Racing downpipe and their +40bhp ecu but only made 271bhp so only 11 up on standard

Nice to put some more faces to names :)

I think we all came in a little low here but still had a good day out.

Here's mine:

Way way.....WAAAAY lower than I thought it was at, but he said its running lean low down, mid range & top end was fine. I need John to take a look at this and see if he can sort something.

Main reason to dyno here was to see if this issue would pop up and be able to shine some light on it, so numbers are low but hopefully this dyno plot will help show John what's going on.

Looks like something wrong at circa 3krpm with that big dip in torque and bhp and I'd have thought bhp would have been much stronger top end ( and it dips at circa 5k rpm)

As you say at least you've got it some plots to send off for investigation to get some more power unleashed.

We're there any beasts at the dyno day? They are good fun with a few mates .

Was a Supercharged VXR8 that was estimated at around 520bhp but it was spinning on the rollers and then they kept tripping out so couldn't run it

Yeah somethings up.

Some nice cars there, shame about the vxr8. Really liked the supercharged 306 though!!! Bet that catches loads out!! I spotted the willwood brakes & had a feeling it would be a bit tasty :)

Didn't run mine as until my heatplates are removed, I'm just going to see ~250hp. Photos are now done. (Full gallery) Sadly all the Saabs bar Ad's 900 had already been run on the dyno by the time I arrived and got the camera out. (I had to take a detour to the shell garage to stand like a teapot and feed the beast) I'll sort the videos out and add links for them once they are done.

A few from the day.

216.5 bhp!!!

Think I have a split hose or duff boost valve :cen:

Fueling was sweet though - much smoother than the Abbott fuel plot (no offence mate) - nice one noob!

235.9 hp and 244.6 ftlb at the fly for Erec. Very happy with it. I'd guesstimated (but not said it out loud so I didn't jinx it!) 237hp and 250ftlb so my bottom dyno is well calibrated :-P Also found a Focus ST to have a play with on the way home, not a chance buddy :wink:

Kyle and Dai hurry up with these videos :-D
