Rolling road session..

Post by Ducklakeview » Thu Jul 20, 2017 8:44 pm

I have been meaning to book a dyno session for my car, just out of curiosity, to see just what I have to play with, bearing in mind that I have done the VANOS, and removed the internals from the cats.

Anyone recommend somewhere near to St Helens, Merseside?

Can't help much as all my sessions have been as part of a tuning run or a forum/group shootout at more remote locations - Oxford (AMD) & Chesterfield (Noble) & Sheffield (CLP) were my last few.

I'm sure I remember one around Macclesfield...will have a look...but the closest I can think of is AwesomeGTI in Irlam.

Just done a google search and found there's one literally over the road from me in south Liverpool (Riverside Racing). Don't know anything about it other than what's on the web.

Can't give any particular recommendation though as I've not used any of them for over 7 years.

Just curious as to what I'm actually getting, 63k miles "down the line" so to speak..

Will do, just need to sort some 35 rubber for the rear, as the 40's on there now make the wheels 26mm greater in dia, which won't help the gearing!
