Right been a busy wee while.....

I purchased new aero sideskirts and a new triple r splitter which need to be fitted. :)

Before Saturdays rolling road day I fully detailed the leon.
After 2 washes to strip all the rubbish off of it I used iron x on the alloys and panels and clay bared her to get off all the grot. She was then polished twice and waxed twice.

Here is some pics

Wee why is there a 16 BHP difference between your runs?

cheers

Both results were the 4th and 5th run on the rollers. The first 3 times the leon spun the rollers due to cold tyres and rollers. By this point with the settings I'm running my car started to heat soak which is what you can see on the graph. The heat that came off the car was unbelievable lol. You could physically see the exhaust tips expanding out.

I would loved to have seen what it made on the first cold run :( no luck

What intercooler you going for Wee?
Are you going to add a twincooler or a new one to replace the original?

A new one to replace the standard s3 one Kev. The twintercooler isn't a real upgrade. We logged al's car and the 2nd core blocks the main core and creates lag.
I 'm going for the STASIS eurojet which gets really good reviews and shows very low charge temps in high temps :). It gives me headroom to advance my timing as the car is not gonna be able to run the current timing without timing pull when the summer temps come in
