Looks like you had a great day John! Nice mix of car there, Pomme's car looks great

A wee bit down on power, but that could be due to the conditions. The graph looks healthy enough and more or less follows other healthy ED30 plots I've seen too.

If I'd have spotted this I would have come over as Awesome isn't too far for me

Impressive stuff.
The dyno plot looks very impressive on your ED30, loads of torque  

I bet it sounded good with all those Rs on the rollers, especially as many would have modded exhausts too. Mmmm.  

What sort of power were the standard R32s putting out? I've heard/read so many conflicting stories of the factory power outputs it must be fairly good to see a bunch of them on the rollers on the same day to get a real sort of average power for them.

the full results are always up on awesomes website pretty soon.
Didnt know you were free John sorry 
Im gutted Im not going to Supechips next weekend to provide a direct comparison.
mine , an S3 8P , mkv5 r32 all ran. (me in 2wd and others in 4wd mode)
R32s do sound different class 
pommes is insane on the dyno and backfires at the rev limit nearly breaking eardrums...
Given my money again Id be buying an mkv R32 2nd hand and adding a turbo kit. 
car still runs good so Im pleased
