Weston Motorsport Mk5 Rolling Road Day
« on: November 01, 2008, 05:25:38 pm »
Firstly thanks to DaveFish at R32OC for organising the day apart from the cold weather a good time was had by all  :happy2:

I will let the Greenouse and RedRobin post there results themselves, but needless to say we showed the R32 boys a thing or two  :laugh:

I saw an improvement on my last Dyno Dynamics days at JKM with power now up to 288.9BHP and 262 FT LB.

Here are a few pic's from the day (I have saved a special one for the caption competition) : -













Theres a few more to follow  :smiley:

Let's just say the Milltek TBE was proven to make a very big big difference  :embarrassed:

Very good results for the Greenouse! but I can't steal his thunder and will let him post his graph etc, I am sure he will be along shortly once he's watched the GP qualifying  :driver:

While waiting for "Green - my figures start with a 3 and everyone else's start with a 2 - ouse" to put up his heres my graph: -



Even though I was well pleased with the results the best part of the day was some fun we had with the R32 boys after breakfast at Maccy D's.

I was side by side with one of them doing about 30 and we both hit the go pedal, after an initial traction issue he rapidly started to disappear in my mirror  :driver:

Later on DaveFish said the guy had commented to him how surprised he was about how quick the GTI's are  :grin: :grin: :grin:

Well firstly can I apologise to all the R32 boy's who have spent alot of money on their beautiful sounding motors  :embarrassed:

As I was in the 'booth' I didn't get to hear their WTF!?! comments as my graph appeared on the monitor  :jumping:




Well chuffed, and about time Superchips delivered, and gave the REVO lot something to think about!!   :fighting:

Thanks for a great day Dave!  :wink:

Oh that Latte's gonna taste so sweeeet!  :wink:
