Went down to
PD Tuning in Boldon today for a Rolling Road Day, unfortunately having looked forward to getting the car on the rollers I came away quite disappointed:
The best the car made was 259.5 bhp & 295 ft/lb.
Having spoke to a few others who have used these rollers before I found they were very conservative and everyone seemed to be down on power on the day. The only consolation being another lads (Zeap101) Stage 2 (Jabba) LCR made 258.3 bhp &
280 ft/lb, that at least should mean theres nothing wrong with the car and its merely down to conditions and the good old dyno lottery (which I seem to have lost
).
I did find out however mine seems to red line late (7200rpm) and was told it should red line around 6800rpm, the operator also thinks I should be able to increasing the timing to 7 or 8
. Looks like I'll be investing in vagcom sometime soon so I can have a play.
Pictures from today:
Also realised when i got home the runs were done in 3rd, should it not be 4th?
