rr day near London, Red Dot again? - 14/03/2011 22:48

Now my new coup is back from a trip to flea (minus dyno)...
Who fancies a trip to Red Dot in Enfield again?

Will

Just out of interest, what Dyno do they use here?

Also do you or anyone know if this is the one Duncan78 went to as his was a healthy, spot on 221bhp if I remember correctly.

Cheers,

Hey Technics,

The one I went to was at Hayes Engineering in Erith, Kent. It had a Dyno-Dynamics RR.

My car made 221.8 bhp. It was useful as I could see my EBV was tired. I've got a brand new EBV since then, would like to get it RR'd at the same place again sometime ...

Dan (Hovedan) had his car on the dyno at Red Dot recently after a remap and made 360bhp & 332lbs/ft smile

Now now ladies...

Marco not lazy just v busy, only day off I had went to Flea as you know.

Besides I understand you want to get certain parts (bought and) fitted before seeing how close yours will be to mine...

Sat 28th May a gooer - gives everyone PLENTY of time... And enough heads and I'm sure they'll do a cheap 30 quid a car price or thereabouts...

Erith's further for me and the red dot guys looked after us well last time so my preference at the mo would be there

I might still be up for this even if it is at Red Dot.

At Erith we had sandwiches provided for free, so I propose that if Will is organising it and we go to Red Dot, his GF/Wife makes some for everyone smile

Shame Marco, even if she brings it down so I can have a look, it's the only hatchback i'd go for over a Civic Type R now!

Will ask a few mates to see if they're interested

Re: rr day near London, Red Dot again? - 01/04/2011 23:15

Also speaking to my mate - he's an editor of a car mag, more max power style that Auto Italia - but worth a try to see if he wants to get anyone down...
Looks like I may have to change clutch first though if I'm gonna have some power runs myself ;-(

Re: rr day near London, Red Dot again? - 03/04/2011 20:24

Also regarding your mate, see if he can do an articale of are cars, showing real power not "my nova has 1000bhp...its still a 1L 8v though.."

Re: rr day near London, Red Dot again? - 05/04/2011 19:08

Yup, bout to paypal JBT for a clutch...
May try and see if i can get a bit longer from the standard one as it's only 4th and 5th I get the slip...
How's your situation going, wanna grab the goodies to fit?

And yeah was trying to go down the real car club and real tuning route with matey...

Not yet Joe, too much on at the mo, 6+ weeks of work infront of me, wife's been out of the country in the US for the last week and veg growing season is in full swing. I'll just have to behave sensibly frown But it will be my next coupe job, after cleaning for the Beaulieu Event this weekend. It's been hauled up in the shrine since Dust-bowl Italia wink

Re: rr day near London, Red Dot again? - 18/05/2011 23:50

When you do get a chance to change the oil I wouldn't be surprised if you see 1.2 - 1.4 pressure.

Let's hope Joe. It would be good to have a cheap fix for once smile
