Please

1. Be sure someone shows up with a stock R32.

2. They give you altitude/pressure/temp corrected wheel hp numbers

without an addition 13 fancy corection factors (ala MAHA dyno)

that try to guestimate crank hp.

3. Get actual dyno graphs in hand before leaving, or better still

get the dyno graphs in electronic format. With a stock R32 there

you won't need to guess what the correction factor is.

There's nothing more frustrating than hearing that a bunch of

people went to a dyno (ok rolling road) day and only 1 of 7 people

can post up a graph, and every car is modified so there's no

idea what actual gains are just "Joe put down more power than Bob".

A couple folks with and without 6463 update would be interesting.

Thanks for the advice Daemon. 169144-ok.gif

We have got a mixture of standard, fairly modified and very modified cars coming along on the day, so hopefully we will get some good benchmarks to base the dyno tests on.

Especially looking forward to R32TIM's 320 bhp monster... tongue.gif

I have a tentative date of Thursday 28th July which I will be confirming on Monday with Janspeed when the person who organises the dyno days is back from holiday. There is an MG ZT open day on Saturday 30th, so they need Friday 29th clear to prepare the dyno.

I will post again Monday with details and requests for confirmation.

Apologies to everyone for the delay on posting the date on this. slap.gif

Friday 12th August is the confirmed date.

Smudge, pls can you PM everyone who has expressed an interest or confirmed that they will be going, based on the previous dates posted. I will update the posts in the other forums to bring people back to this one.

If you have not already PM'd Smudge, please do so now. There is a maximum of 15 cars, so it is first come first served.

Costs anyone?? laugh.gif169144-ok.gif

£30 per run, or £25 per run if we get more than 10 cars. 169144-ok.gif

If you want to do a run, make some mods and then do another run, you will need to pay for two runs. That's lots of runs in that sentence then. Runs, runs, runs wink.gif

Am doing this on my R as have got some minor tweaks to make so need a before and after, so will be coughing up twice...
