Is anyone know of any rolling road events going on anytime soon?

Need to get my motor onto it.

Sorry mate no,
But you can book a single run at peco, but that may have changed and it will cost more too.

Is this to help you sell it ?

Theres a rolling road at Cheshire Oaks - http://www.autogym.co.uk/4x4_Rolling_Road.htm - not sure if they do individual runs, but a few people have said they do.

Oh right, shame there isn't enough people on here interested in booking a group one frown

I'm interested in another rolling road when my cars sorted (hopefully, around 2 months time) and I'm sure Whelan would be one he does his engine rebuild?

I'd advise going somewhere else to Autogym. I know a couple of people who took their cars to Peco with me and then put it back on the rollers at Autogym a while later and they were both around 50bhp down on power. I always stick to Peco myself as I know it's very accurate and consistent. I'd rather pay an extra £5-£10 to know the exact output and not just an estimate. If you want to go to Peco then send me a PM and i'll come along with the Integra, i'd be interested to see what power mine's putting out with the new mods.

I've had this arguement on the VXR Forums about dyno's.

If i took my car to TMS, Courtenay, Regal or DAP each dyno will be giving off different bhp values. this is down to a number of factors:

hymidity in the dyno room
air flow getting to the engine - fan types vary
what fuel you used (one day vpower the other bp ultimate)
air temp
etc

there are alot of variables to take into concideration when taking your car on the dyno.
