....not with the engine underload you can't, unless you take the bonnet off and sit on the front wing while your mate drives....

True, but on a standard car setting up the mixture with a co tester is perfectly adequate. Factory guidelines don't state using a rolling road to set it up.  ;) :D :-*

you might need to if you move/disconect the warm up regulator so that the fuel pressure runs too high :o

A rolling road is ideal if you want to set up the car to its optimal performance. Most garages including main dealers don't use rolling roads. All the cars i have worked on have been pretty much standard, so my methods have worked. I agree that when modding a car, it is best to use a rolling road, as that is the best way to get optimal performance out of an engine.
Whats the most i could get out of my vr6 without any head work or cams?

Apart from the usual few hp with the halfords type mods that we are all aware of, go for some serious hp with forced induction ;D. Super charging works well on the vr6 engine, no mods required to the engine for low boost. Would make a interesting project ;).

I quite like the idea of sitting on the wing and then getting michael jackson to drive after he gets an invitation to a kids birthday party.
