Sunday January 10th 2010 - 8am onwards
All money taken on the day will be going to a local charity - http://www.menphys.org.uk/
There was an old gentleman at the top of Nick's (R-Tech proprietor) road who used to do his house up in a billion lights and dress up as Santa, then open his house up as a groto during the lead up to xmas. He was on the local TV every year and made £1000s for the charity. But sadly 2 years ago he passed away, so no more santas groto for the local kid and £1000s less each year for Menphys.
ROLLING ROAD SHOOTOUT
As many cars as we can fit in - 30 minimum!
£25 for 3 power runs with printout and engine diagnostic scan.
If you want to put your car on the dyno, reply to this post. If you're 100% certain on attending include the word confirmed to be added to the final list. If you are on the list and can't make it - let me know ASAP by private message. You will need to arrive as early as possible on the day. We will do a quick pre-check of your car including oil level and tyre pressures but please let us know of any running issues, knocks and rattles, funny noises or misfires BEFORE it gets run up to 120mph in 4th gear on the rolling road :wink:

Lowered cars attention - The R-Tech rolling road is a tuning dyno with a pair of large rollers and the front wheels sit very deep between them to maximise the contact patch. As a general rule a Mk4 1.8T lowered 50mm will JUST get on, 40mm for a TDI (lower sump). If you're slammed on coilovers - wind them up the day before :afro:

No need to sign up to this it'll be on a first come first serve basis :smiley:

-
Nick will be running his car at around 8.30am and think they have another car after that to run. So if people can get there for jsut before 9am it will work ok.
Parking spaces will be allocated for people going on RR, numbers will be allocated to cars and disclaimers signed, money paid and car will have oil, coolant and tire pressures checked, then onto the ramps, visual check and diagnostics check, then 3 back to back power runs. Hopefully the guys will be turning cars around every 15 mins.
We need everyone to have there ears opened to turn the cars around quickly. The guys are aiming to ensure 30+ cars get on the rollers. It will be a first come first served basis.

i heard some right gobby cnut had offered to help so I am sure you will hear when its your turn :smiley:

But....
Screw that I'm still coming! Can't miss this. I don't want to be one of 'them' :grin:

Matping - send Topher a PM mate stating your car and confirmation

thanx buddy not done this before ive sent all details / mods etc
-
Okay.
Seeing as I don't get out of the MKV section much (no jokes please :embarassed:) JV has sent me a linky to show me where I need to be on the 10th.
I'll send Topher a PM and Confirm.
Definitely coming.........unless I blow up the car first :laugh:
-
good to see you mingling with the other crowds Hurdy.
Not to everyone else who may be interested in going on the rollers. We now have alot of names on the list and back up's, you are more than welcome to come along on the day but we cannot guarantee you will get on the rollers as the guys are going to be very busy with the other 30+ cars but they will try there hardest to get even more on. I will be willing to just do 1 power run to cut down abit of time as the more people on the rollers, the more money raised for charity.
So please still come along on the day as it is a meet for everyone.

Hoping to be there in my new car, will try and bring a few mates along too :smiley:

Hello M8,
I have never ran a DSG on the dyno.. :embarassed: Looking forward to doing it.. :evil:
The only other ed30 there will be my mates, which only has a base map loaded to unlock the power no real tuning gone on with it as yet.. until you take him out in your ed30 and convince him he needs to let me loose with his car. :smug: His is running a really smooth 270bhp, so sorry to say no real competition, unless we bring our vauxhall turbos which pin the dyno at close on 500bhp.

judging by the fact that 31 cars are due to run on the dyno I'd say about 8

well there's well over 30 cars for the rollers, good interest on other forums - R32OC & UKMKivs so we are hoping to hit the 100+ mark
-
100+ :laugh: :laugh: And where are we all going to park!!!
-
its an industrial estate so there will be plenty of space on a sunday for parking. Our aim is for 100+ cars but this all depends on how many people stick to what they say about turning up, weather being crap or just general excuses.
Im sure there's plenty like me though who want the day to be good and make the effort.

Mine will be quite easy to use on the Dyno compared to standard DSG's, do you let the Dyno run down with the car in gear or neutral?
My car has the REVO stage 2 DSG remap, which has a manual lockout, so no kickdown when used in manual mode and has a 7400rpm redline, which you will hit in manual mode rather than the box gear up. You can knock the box into neutral if needed too.
Don't worry I'll take your mate out in my car - if I can't convince him that he needs to modify it, no-one can :evil:

I should be coming over for this one although I got a proper box standard tdi 130 so will be a little embarrased being amongst so many lovely modded cars.
I don;t want to go on the RR just wanna attend to see other cars to get modding ideas and generally meet some of the faces I speak to on the forum.
As a TDi owner it would be an honour to meet Rhyso and Steve PD and see there cars in the metal.
Is anyone up for doing an EGR and manifold clean out for charity?

Just been in touch with Super Pro Bushes and Richard has come back to me and they will be donating a voucher upto the value of £200 inc VAT for a bush kit. There cover most platforms from mk1 to mk4 2wd. they also do mk4 4wd applications and later models but these are slightly more expensive but im sure the generous voucher they have supplied will make who ever wins the prize happy.
Big thanks to Richard @ Super Pro

Cheeky Fookers, just had to register to put the record straight. Bloody Edition 38 highjack mafia, who do they think they are :evil:
-
Just to clear things up lads, were not hijacking the meet or anything along them lines.
Im a mate of Ben and Nick and live just down the road. I run the local VW club in Leicester and after a couple of months without a meet asked if it would be ok to combine ours with your day as our meet was going to be on the 10th Jan too.
Thought we'd bring our lot along too, raise more money and see more cars etc.
Didnt mean to cause any offence here or people thinking bad of us, if its a no then just let us know and we'll find another location. I did ask ade about it and he was fine aswel as coming for a beer at the mariner on Saturday night.
Sorry for any confussion, should of perhaps told you lot the plan before posting on Edition.
-
Your more than welcome to come along mate and like you said, more money for charity. No offence taken, just alot of hard work has been put into this by the members on here.

Wicked! Great contribution mate!
Have i already asked you if you fancy coming up on the saturday?
-
Is there anyone that is attending this that can do a cluster swap?
My friend is coming up with me in a 2007 Caddy Van, he has bought a set of 2004 Touran clocks (i think thats what he said) He did a lot of research and found out that this is the correct set to go in and that lots of people have done it before. He just needs someone to do all the magic to put them in and make them work lol
Can anybody help?
Thanks in advance
-
I have the kit to do it, but have never attempted it on something that new... and i can't see me having time to do it either. Perhaps a PM to old_n07 to see if he might be persuaded to pop over and do it for some beer tokens.

ok mate will pm him in a sec, you definately wouldnt have time to do it yourself on the saturday? and not the Sunday? We can get there as early as you like :tongue: And he said he will pay you double whatever you wanted lol
Would it be prety straightforward? or is it soemthing that can go wrong and then fubar everything lol
-
it can all go swimmingly.. then you get to the part where you recode keys to the new dash and you find yourself with an abandoned vehicle :grin:
I'd want to take my time with my first one, i've only done mk4s with vagtacho so far and haven't had much chance to play with k+can commander.

Ok then mate no worries thanks anyways! Will pm old no7 now.
If things did go wrong like you just said could you just put the original clocks back in and all would be spiffy?
-
Not sure.. but i can't see why not. I think neil prefers to do the flashing on the bench and dump the code directly to the cluster rather than trying to recode everything with vagcom. I'm not comfortable with doing it that way yet.

Ok kool i assume Neil is Old no7? Im just PM'in him now :smiley: Does he live local?
-
he's in stoke... about an hour away i think. You could even pop up to him on saturday if he can't make it to the meet on sunday! A lot of people struggle with 2007+ stuff but he should see you right. If not there are a couple of guys down your way that can do it (ard and kalu i think?)

I reckon the major motorways etc will be clear
Had this problem in February last year - lots of snow and me and the missus were going to York for our birthdays - took me less than 4 hours to get there! No snow on the major roads as the volume of traffic had cleared it
-
London is clear as you like but weather says we are in for it from 6 tonight / all tonight / all tomorrow :undecided:

Has Topher got all the bhp estimates in now?

Whats the LOWEST HP car you have had on the rollers ?
is there a minimum ? :grin:

Didnt know Topher was asking for the BHP estimates

It helps when strapping the car down and sometimes setting up the dyno, although I don't know the specifics at R-Tech.

hopefully the weather will allow the event to take place. If it's anything like today I'm staying in, it's barely drivable.

http://www.metoffice.gov.uk/weather/uk/em/hinckley_forecast_weather.html
Obviously alot of people will be travelling and would say side roads etc will be worse but once on the main roads than i would say they will be clear. Just take your time, drive safely and get to the meet in one peice.

Unless we have a sudden sunny spell the carwash will be cancelled. After chatting with Guy the sub-zero temperatures play havoc with his equipment and cleaning solutions.. not to mention the water freezing as soon as it hits the car.
Also i'm not going to claims court when someone slips on frozen carwash foam :afro:

If the weather is really bad, is the event still definitely going to be on? I'm all up for going, but am not driving for 2.5 hours to find out no one else went! :grin:

If I get enough time spare from the dyno, sure. Laptop in one hand, charity bucket in the other :cool:

Im definately coming.
Can all the members who's cars are going on the rollers please bring a small engine spec list with you to give to the Golf+ reporter for the review. He will also be taking pics of the cars on the rollers and the owners mug shots , however he wont be arriving till around 10am so up till then i will be taking pictures.
He has also asked if we could leave the big powered cars/ special cars etc till he arrives. So i think maybe an R32, Hurdy's Mk5, Neil's Mk6, Rhyso's deisel, Davegolfturbo and Jake and then couple mk4's 1.8T and mk2 or mk3 cars. that way give him a bit of variation.
Will also be taking pictures of the other cars attending the meet and i will be trying to get as much video footage as i can to put up on the internet.

Do it and me and khare can go around getting people to throw in some money to see us do it. I'm not gonna lie, I like mayo but just eating it outright seems a bit foul to me, and if I end up being sick, I wouldn't be surprised. :sick: :grin:

I just got off phone to Barry, we are still planning on leaving tomorrow morning :)
-
I'm out (or rather snowed in) and we have more forecast.
I think it would be better to bump it to another weekend.
nick
-
It would be ideal to have it on another day so that everyone can make it but I doubt thats possible as it would be a nightmare to change it to another day, everything is planned for tomorrow . . . . :undecided:
-

agreed. People have booked days off work by now and probably booked B&B's for tomorrow night.
-
its the usual scenario that if we postpone it to another weekend that not everyone who is down for running can attend. unfortunatley no one could predit the weather would be this bad when the date was set and if we did postpone how do we know what it may be like in a few weeks time.
-
Come on chaps ! WE CAN DO IT !
-
im still in and preparing stuff for the day.
-
It's gonna have to be a blizzard to stop us now :smiley:
-
will be seeing you at Woodhall services Hurdy
-
Jeez this has come round quick, it'll be this Sunday, damn that was well quick.
Should make it fingers crossed, only in Leicester so no real excuse not to be there.
I might need to bring my son with me who is 2 years old, this will be ok for this type of meet right? As in child friendly?
Obviously he'll be at my side at all times and not gonna touch anything and won't be pulling stuff off people cars or anything (although that may not be a bad idea :) )
What you guys reckon? As he loves cars I reckon he'd love it.
-
Just keep him away from Shady and he will be fine :)
-
Bring him along - got to start them early :afro:
-
Asif - as Rhyso said good to start them early and kids are more than welcome.
-
Just keep him away from Shady and he will be fine :)
You sicko lol!
-
Just keep him away from Shady and he will be fine :)
You sicko lol!
You guys will have to point out Shady to me LOL Just kidding Shady whoever you are.
Right then I should b coming and will be bringing my son with me, I reckong he'd love it, he loves alloys, exhausts and engine bays.
Alloys really facinate him so i'm sure he'll be fine :)
Cheers for the info guys.

Latest update from the nerve centre:
There was a brief flurry of snow this morning so I shouted at the sky. It promptly got it's act together and the clouds dispersed. A surprisingly sunny day all day and on the M1 this afternoon heading to Milltek to pick up some more raffle prizes you wouldn't even know it had been snowing, just a bit frosty on the embankments.
All the roads round here are operating just fine so you all have a full day tomorrow to dig your cars out :tongue:
-
BBC news saying big big snow fall on Sunday. I'll still be there unless my ECU decides to blow! :lipsrsealed:

Also to help things along, can all those people running on the rolling road please sign in when they arrive so that we know who has turned up and if there is any free spaces or not. Then we can let any back up cars know. I will print off the running sheet and put it in the office and then just a case of going in and ticking your name off.
Also im sure the guys at R-Tech would appreciate if we all chipped in and kept them supplied with coffee's whilst there busy at work.
Cheers

Someone will be on the gate taking care of that. Or if it gets too cold to stand there a big banner telling them to sign in at the office :grin:

I'm aiming to get there about 8:30am or so earlier. Leaving Bournemouth at 5am.
Roads here are more or less clear, just got back from Southampton and the run to the motorway is all clear so it should be a relatively trouble free trip up there unless it snows hard halfway or something. I've got most of my stuff ready now, topped up all the fluids in the engine (forgot oil of course, but it was about half way so it's fine) and pumped up my tires.
Should be a good day tomorrow and tis great to see so many people dig out the cars and battle the weather for the first major event of the year.

A round of applause to all the guys at Rtech, and all that helped out, and to Sally for the catering, the day was made good by all those that made the effort to turn out, and nice to put some new faces to forum names
Hopefully this will pave the way for better attendance for future events... :lipsrsealed:

Just got back now, was a good day lots of people even with the weather. a load of cash made for charity :cool: mmm sally's baps
Nick one R-Tech :afro:
ps next one in the summer please :lipsrsealed:
-
Good day out, sorry I went without saying see ya, got a call from the wife saying little one had to go to A&E so went. All ok though.
Big thanks to all at R Tech and Sally for sorting lovely baps out. Enjoyed it!
-
I came but got there really late, loads of nice cars, unfortunately I didn't get to put any names to faces :( think this mainly due to me coming quite late and people seemed quite busy and deep in convo's so didn't get to meet/speak to anyone. Maybe next time.
I came with my son and was there from about 2 to 3, he got cold but wanted to stay as he loved all the cars and the rolling road.
Hopefully next meet i'll get to put some faces to names, will have to come much earlier also :laugh:
-
Got back a wee while ago, made good time! Had a great time catching up with everyone :afro:
-
had a great day thank you to all that organised it and was great to catch up and meet some new people :cool:
-
:cool: lets have the pic`s i 4got mine was fecking cold tho :cool:
I have a video of Hurdy's monster :)
:drool:
Need this now :laugh:
I was sat in the car when it was on the rollers
Great day and thanks to Everyone who organised it and R-Tech for being patient with my DSG :smiley:
and finally, thanks to all those who turned up and donated and emptied their pockets for a good cause :cool:
-
finally got home had a great journey home, was brilliant to meet everyone
-
it was so cold, my feet started to hurt. still sitting next to electric heater warming my feet :lipsrsealed: :grin:
-
Been a really good day today really enjoyed it and nice to meet people and that, well chuffed with my cars performance on the rollers 256bhp with just a milltek cat back!! :grin: :grin:
-
Finally back in the warm!
Well done to the people who turned up, we got back to South-east with no problems at all!
Cheers R-Tech and organisers...
-
I'm seriously impressed with my little beauty. For all those who say 8v's are crap and better to buy a 16v and so on and so forth, the figures speak for themselves.
138hp and 137ft-lb of torque...Only 12 hp shy of a 16v and 5 ft-lb more than a 16v I believe :wink:
-
Just got in, had a safe journey home, car is filthy though lol!
Was a really great turn out and amazing to see the amount people chipping in for charity. Hopefully the final figure should be a good one! Good to see some new faces as well, as well as the old. :grin:
-
Massive thanks to Nick, Ben, Chris and the R-Tech team and to everyone else that got this sorted, was a top day even though it was freezing.
10 points to Toph for getting the first "haha you don't have a car" joke in early Saturday morning :D
The smell in the toilet was Dan Apps by the way, don't listen to what he says.

Was yours the car that i drove back onto the ramps because the oil pressure light came on as I was backing it off? Get your oil flushed mate or better still have the sump removed and cleaned out (oil pickup pipe too) before you suffer the dreaded blocked oil pickup problem.. its most likely a bit of sludge in your sump.

Top weekend :cool: :cool:
Big thanks to everyone @ R-Tech & helpers, Sallys Baps and Paul (Hulmie)
Really good turnout despite the weather :afro:
Nice to meet up with some old and new people
Roll on the next one :cool: :cool: :cool:
Will stick my graph up in a bit but mine made 182bhp and 336lbs ft torque though playing with it yesterday she did hit 188bhp and 356lbs ft!! :shocked:
-
Pop a can of oil flush in and let the engine idle for 10 minutes before you drop the oil out. If you're lucky that's all you'll need to do :afro:
-
seen some of Alans photos looks like you all had a laugh and a good day up there!
-
Alan and a few others arnt there yet :grin: He sounded proper rough haha, anyway i still might be going bloke buying my car has bailed surprise surprise so depending on what alan says i might go, sure beats staying in.

finally arrived back home @ 6pm, still defrosting my feet.
Well what can i say, great day, very happy with the turnout, great to finally put names to faces, had a good laugh.
Big thanks to Nick, Ben and Topher for all there hard work on the rollers, To Ade for helping out with the raffle and getting donations and thanks to everyone that turned up despite the weather. I think everyone that came had a good day
early estimates show the rolling road generated about £500 for charity, £100 from the second raffle and £160 from the first raffle and then all the change that was collected in the buckets. So hoping the final figure will be around the £800 mark.
The people from the charity even popped down to see what we was doing and then themselves wanted to say a big thanks to everyone.
THANKS

Really good day :D nice to meet new preople and make a few quid.

Just found out we raised £1040 today with the rolling road, raffle and donations. + we also decided to give the £50 currys voucher to the charity so they could buy something to go in there centre. There is still all the coppers to count up aswell but think Nick is going to take these to an asda and use the change machine.
So well done to everyone sure the charity will appreciate all our efforts.
Got about 54 pictures on my camera to upload which i will do tomorrow.
My power figures 206bhp & 226 lb/ft torque. What i expected but i know theres more to come once the uprated actuator spring is installed. So expect more from my car at the next RR day.

I don't think it shot any flames today, but i know it has in the past.. i was just worried with people standing so close behind so had them all moved back a bit. There was a nipper there who's face was about in-line with the exhaust, would've had a nasty shock! 358bhp on the dyno and 367bhp on the brake.. very impressive.

sounded sweet mate. Thanks for them bits btw.

WTF happened yesterday!!
The worst winter in 30 odd years and some many people braved it and turned up as if it was a mid summer meet. We was not expecting the turn out like we had, maybe 8-10 cars max and a few to turn to watch with the rest stopping at home keeping warm. Credit to you all who came along and got your feet cold!!!
The final total raised for charity was £1100, after me and the wife spent 3 hours counting and bagging the money at 11pm last night. This will be paid in to the back and a cheque wrote out and handed over later this week in front the local news paper (time for a shave and hair cut me thinks)
I would like to thank EVERYONE who helped out, turned up, took part and dontated. A big thanks to Chris and Ben for working there only day off..lol and thanks to Ade & Hulmie to helping promote the event and spending most of the day helping out.
Just one problem which I have just found is which is going to upset the first runners on the dyno. On the Saturday night we was mapping Bavs car on the dyno using the eddy brake which added extra load to the rollers, the load was taken off the dyno but the calculation in the software stayed inplace which ended up giving a higher reading. :embarassed: So there a a few BHP to take of the results. I have adjusted the calculations to give the correct results. I thought they where running high so we reset the software after the first few, but its only this morning I can see why they where high.
I will be adding all the graphs to the r-tech rr photobucket account later today
cars in question with edited graphs.

cheers hulmie,
still very happy with the results, was a cracking day glad i could give a little to charity as well :wink:
-
who's car is V83 ECK, i dont have any pictures of this on the rollers and not sure if the photographer got this one. So could you please email me with your name, Car details, any photo's you got of the car on the rollers, list of engine mods, and your comments and R-tech comments. Then i will forward these to the photographer to ensure they go in the magazine.
Nick - Yeh was a big surprise everyone that turned up made the effort when it was bloody freezing. My feet are still feeling it this morning as i think i soaked up about 2 litres of water through me trainers.
Great final figure mate, there was also a £50 currys voucher in the money bag to give to the charity.
Yeh best scrub up mate, dont want the picture looking like Grizzly adams.lol
Well done to you and your team for all the hard work. well worth it. Think we'll be talking about a summer Dyno :afro:
-
i just wanna say thanks to all who arranged the rr day and the charity function/donated bit for charity. i was surprised at the turn out in the poor weather conditions and the amount of travelling some people did just to be there. fingers crossed we'll do a 'summer one' and have a bigger turnout and some more funds for the charity.

Thankfully mine wasn't one of the cars that read too high on the power scale as I am more than impressed with 138hp! :smiley:

Looked an excellent day.

You're all just lucky I wasn't there to show you up with 6v power!
Nick

diesel diesel diesel :tongue:
-
I'm impressed with your power though Khare. My MKII is down 100cc on your MKIII but with the Ported head, Inlet and exhaust manifold and the slightly more mental cam I reckon it might pull 145bhp on the R-Tech rollers. I will have to get it up there one day!
Nick
-
I'll be buying a vernier pulley and getting it set up properly at Rtech along with one of their maps sometime in 2010, hopefully sooner rather than later! Aiming for 150hp and 140 torques before the summer time :cool:
-
You still not got the vernier then? I'm even more impressed! Got one on mine but no idea if it's been set up properly, ha ha.
Nick

When did you last service it Khare?

were there any standard cars dyno'ed on the day as a kind of accuracy benchmark?

Too slow mr diesel :grin: :kiss:
-
When did you last service it Khare?
about 6 months ago or something, but it wasn't a full service, I've changed bits in stages.
Plugs are about 6 or 7 months old, dizzi cap and rotor are about 2 months old and airfilter was changed for the pipercross one about 10 months ago and not been cleaned since. HT leads and fuel filter are god knows hold old now. Might have made more power if it had a FULL service not long ago :smiley: Next time I go up I'll make sure to give it a complete service of everything.

I would have thought it would more likely be a fuelling issue running lean :huh:
Barry's MK4 was running lean due to a faulty fuel pump and a couple of other issues
-
Tis only running lean cos the camshaft is holding the door open for the family but only the mum can come in, the rest of the family ain't arrived yet...if it makes sense :laugh:
Basically cam is allowing more fuel and air to come in but the injectors ain't pumping enough fuel in cos it's on the standard map to work along with the standard cam.

Tis only running lean cos the camshaft is holding the door open for the family but only the mum can come in, the rest of the family ain't arrived yet...if it makes sense :laugh:

Khare your car is rubbish! The sodding window doesn't open, so i had to hold the door open to get the remote and dyno controls in the car. Got a face full of snow off your tyres :grin:

The golf said sorry upon arrival at home, he said he was annoyed he was running lean, but I told him you'd make him better with a remap and he apologized :grin:

WTF happened yesterday!!
The worst winter in 30 odd years and some many people braved it and turned up as if it was a mid summer meet. We was not expecting the turn out like we had, maybe 8-10 cars max and a few to turn to watch with the rest stopping at home keeping warm. Credit to you all who came along and got your feet cold!!!
The final total raised for charity was £1100, after me and the wife spent 3 hours counting and bagging the money at 11pm last night. This will be paid in to the back and a cheque wrote out and handed over later this week in front the local news paper (time for a shave and hair cut me thinks)
I would like to thank EVERYONE who helped out, turned up, took part and dontated. A big thanks to Chris and Ben for working there only day off..lol and thanks to Ade & Hulmie to helping promote the event and spending most of the day helping out.
Just one problem which I have just found is which is going to upset the first runners on the dyno. On the Saturday night we was mapping Bavs car on the dyno using the eddy brake which added extra load to the rollers, the load was taken off the dyno but the calculation in the software stayed inplace which ended up giving a higher reading. :embarassed: So there a a few BHP to take of the results. I have adjusted the calculations to give the correct results. I thought they where running high so we reset the software after the first few, but its only this morning I can see why they where high.
I will be adding all the graphs to the r-tech rr photobucket account later today
Have to make sure those lower figures get to the golf+ guy!
-
got the correct figures off nick before i left yesterday and sent them over to the Jon who was taking the pics for Golf+
-
who's car is V83 ECK, i dont have any pictures of this on the rollers and not sure if the photographer got this one. So could you please email me with your name, Car details, any photo's you got of the car on the rollers, list of engine mods, and your comments and R-tech comments. Then i will forward these to the photographer to ensure they go in the magazine.
That's my car - I spoke with the photographer after the run, got a few photos taken and he took some details down, so I'm sure everything's ok in that respect.
Cheers
chris

Hi Chris thanks for that. Wanted to make sure that all cars that went on the rollers were going in the mag as i know i had to do the first 4 cars but couldnt remember doing yours.
-
so ALL the cars that went on the rollers will be featured in the mag?
thats means my erm Leon will be in the mix with the Golfs :laugh:
-
unless topher says not to :grin: :lipsrsealed:
-
Which he
will might :D :D
-
Sal - If your picture was taking and the details given to the photographer then id say it will be in the magazine.
-
i don't believe that my car will be in magazin :shocked: :shocked: :shocked:
when will this edition of golf+ comes out??
-
not sure if it will be in time for next month or the month after. If i get chance i will call the editors tomorrow.
Thanks

A good day had by all me thinks :wink:
Results of the lonely mk6

nice power figures Neil. Noticed abit of a dip in torque around 200lb/ft, did Nick say if anything was causing it?

The dip will be the peak of the over boost where the boost/load control starts to kick in to hold the held boost requested boost. to the red line, nothing to worry about look worse on the dyno.
Very nice broad torque band.
-
Pleased with mine too. :smiley:
R-Tech also did a run using the brake dyno to get the peak whp for the car, which was 305whp -roughly 367bhp.
Pleased with the output on the dyno and the car is making smoooooooth output. :cool:

These are from my local dyno, which is a different style dyno and the one I use on a regular basis - the output was achieved when experimenting with octane booster, which gave me 12bhp over stock fuel, so not far out in terms of bhp from the brake dyno if you add back the 12bhp :smiley:
-
the photographer told me it would be a couple of months before the stuff is printed :huh:
i cant beleive it would take so long so i take it we are looking at March as the earliest?
Whats the best way to put the RR result up, i have photobucket account, and have tried to load my results but the qulaity is crap and unreadable when enlarged :embarassed:
-
Sometimes they have a backlog of events to print in the magazine. They normally work 1-2 months ahead so they have stuff to put in the magazine.
The best way to upload your results is to Scan them onto your pc and save as a jpg file. then upload to photobucket and copy and paste the image link. And problems give me a shout and could get the results of R-Tech
-
Hulmie, tried it as a jpg too and then when i view it and enlarge it the graph looks crap.
this is what i get:

I am so gutted that i didnt make it and have to say sorry that i didnt turn up. Every thing was going aganst me.
Having to spend 10 min trying to get into the car after washing it the day before the all the doors freezing up and freezing my fingers off, drive like a granny on due to the ice/snow round my way and then car not driving propaly, tured back home to try and fix it only to find nothing and the Golf seamed to fix itself. Droping my socet set in the snow after slipping and once agane all my lims seasing up, by 10am i was very missarable and very fed up :sad: Gave a call to R-Teck and spoke to Nick to say that i wasent comeing and could some one eles take my spot on the Rollers. I hope some one did.
Then having no internet until today it seems like every one had a Mega time :smiley:
I realy hope to make the next one :cool:
