Cruisewirral Rolling Road Day



Date : Saturday 5th March 2005

Time : 9:00am

Location : A & I (Peco) Acoustics Ltd
Sandford Street
Birkenhead
Merseyside
CH41 1AZ



The normal cost is £40 + VAT (£47:00) but with a group booking we have managed to reduce the cost to £30:00 in total per car. 20 cars are required to secure the reduced cost.

What do you get for your £30:00 ?

Your vehicle is checked for safety, oil and water levels, tyre conditions and pressures and One power run on the rolling road with a graph power (BHP) and torque printout. Peco's technician will drive your car to the Max to obtain your BHP & Torque figures. He will only rev the engine to what you tell him.

You will be entered into the Cruisewirral League table of results.

This rolling road is only suitable for 2 wheel drive cars.

We require a small deposit of £10 to confirm your booking (Payable in cash to Scooby at Autosafe Garage or Sally at the Cruisewirral Meetings).

Your £10 deposit must be paid at our next meeting at the very latest to confirm your booking (3rd March 2005) and the remainding £20 to be paid on the day.

If anyone else wants to join in the fun simply post your name in this topic and you will be added to the list.

I will provide everyones standard BHP figures before we go therefore you can compare your standard figure against your actual figure.

Possibly looking at a prize for the most increased BHP figure :go: :go:

How long will this run on for? I work the night on the friday and will be far off in the land of nod at 9am saturday, what's the latest (safely) that I could turn up?

Also, will they give a torque read-out?

It starts at 9:00am and runs until everyone is done. Each car takes approx 20 - 30 mins (20 cars x 20 mins) will finish approx 3:30 pm maybe. Its hard to judge really.

You get a BHP & Torque printout Jimbo

We need one more car peeps, Tonymk2 has dropped out now

Aaawww no.We need more people,not just one,loads. Lets make a day of it lol. What would the price be for 29 cars scoob??And what would the price be for 30 cars??

Im DEFFO comin to this event!!!!

If we got 30 cars attending we could probably reduce the cost by £5.00 per car but i would need to confirm with Peco first ??

I think the CW van will push out approx 68 bhp

What do you think your car will produce ??

well ford state 74 BHP standard.So i think that mine is now 75
(take into account the 57i,cat back,larger pipe all the way back to twin 6x4 ovals with no silencer in the middle then its a tiny gain.The age of the engine would have reduced the standard figure tho and its only been modded for 15000 miles worth.)
Will the RR give a figure close to this or will it be 25% less (which is what i hear rollin roads display as its taken from wheels not the flywheel)

There is a calculation you can make to work out the flywheel BHP from the rolling road figures.

<b>If members wish to post there car details i will reply with BHP figures as standard so you can compare figures on the day

im trying 2 get the day off work to come along. i want to have mine tested cos i was told my car is 140bhp even tho all the dealers say they are130. I plan to get the ECU remapped in the future so its handy to know what i have gained.
