Sadly Lucifer has had to back out so I've adjusted the times and I've moved myself to the 10.30am slot as a start.

Dyno Demon are aware of this and it won't cause any problems.

If anyone else wishes to jump in, you'd be most welcome - I'll be there from @ 9.30am to make sure everything's sorted.

Good Grief, had some bad news today. I've had car in garage for what i thought was a C.V joint or intermediate bearing, but turns out it may be the gearbox. I am going to the garage first thing in morning so i can listen to the stephoscope he has for it. Soooooo, basically i might be there or i might not. I'm hoping it will have a bit of life left in it so i can get over as im very eager to see what my recent mods have done. Hope it doesnt cause any problems if i dont show up-i can pay a bit towards if it does. Hopefully ill be there anyway. Cheers guys

Excellent service and customer relations from Steve and the team at Dyno Demon once again.

I'm intending to run these on a quarterly basis, both for members who are modding their coops and want to see how things are progressing, along with new / existing members who may want some reassurance that their pride and joy is performing well. \:\)

Thanks to everyone who attended and helped to make it another good day.

I'm contacting Steve later today to arrange the next quarterly date, which will probably be in October.

By the sounds of things, some of you want one much earlier? If that's the case and we can get 10 people confirmed, I'll arrange one for next month (August). I'll start another thread and see what the uptake is. \:\)

The next Rolling Road Day at Dyno Demon will be Saturday 11th October 2008 and I'll now start a new thread for this.

Was a great day we all had, although i had to leave early. Car was losing boost at high end [ended up just under 0.6 bar!! \:o ],and would of made 240bhp with adjustable bleed valve. Just goes to show how a standard bleed valve over the years starts to deteriorate. So just with a K&N, capable of 240bhp, so very happy.
Just about all the cars i saw run, had problems holding boost correctly, so could of like me made more power, but most ran adjustable bleed[greddy etc], so require additional fine adjustments. Only real way is a session on the rollers to fine tune.
Most of the cars that ran were capable of a lot more power. Owners now know after Steve explained thouroughly what is required, so iam hoping on substantial increases in power/torque at the next RR day!!!
Thanks Steve at DD for a great day and thanks Craig for organising it. ;\)
