Did I win the wooden spoon award?



210bhp instead of 245bhp... groan

Rollers under-reading/heat soak/flat tyres/wrong gear/crappy optimax/handbrake on etc etc

 

320.7bhp, 305ft/lbs. Happy with that.

 

No mate - you were beaten to that award with about 180 - 190 bhp....

 

Who got that?? Shane, don't feel too bad, you only got beat by a 2 door convertable Wish id brought the STi now

Nice to meet you all and apologies I couldn't get to chat to you all. Thanks also to the guys at WRC - this was a great day and really impressed with the setup - easy to get to, proper workshop, good rolling road, and nice bacon rolls Hopefully everyone had a good day. Looked like a few people were down on expected power, so imagine there will be a few posts in General technical

Not a sell job by any means, but the 360 plus bhp converson for the new STi looked pretty awesome, as was the 260 EVO one. Looks like the PPP's dont come in near the 305 quoted, so for their APS tweaked STi to come in at that figure is amzing. Plus warranty is given!

If someone wants to start a new thread with the pecking order and a few pics, that would be good.

Thanks again.

Great day, great set-up there @ WRC Tech, nice hat and thanks for organizing it Mark.

 

agree with pickle, a good day out. many thanks mark

would recommend the RR at WRC to anyone. lambda and boost monitored, a few runs to get a proper reading.

not just a slap it on, strap it down, run it up and f**k it off job.

not marks fault, but the day was slightly ruined by me blowing my engine on the way home!

 

Mark

Good to meet you mate and sorry to hear about your engine.... hope you manage to get it sorted without too much hassle.

Great day and WRC were excellent

300/300 for me - which I'm very happy with.

Cheers

Terry

 

I achieved lower than expected. My last dyno was 280 but I only managed 262.1 today - but still, very respectable for a near unmodded 9 year old girl

Busy saving for an apexi and remap now - this will serve as a benchmark

Fab day, lovely people - great food! But my only complaint was not winning a free cap like the better ones of you did

 

Here you go mate - just for you...






Terry

 

That just about sums up my feelings.....




Only kidding

 

Ere... Terry! You could auction that on ebay

 

 

Great day, excellent setup, definately the best RR I've attended. 303/310 and running sweet as a nut! And I got a cap too!!!! Sorry Karen!!

Good to see some new faces

 

Never.....

You can't buy those you know.... so I was reliably informed..... only received on achievement - and I just about did it..

 

Come on then John - where's the pics of your cap then....

 

I'm going to photochop your hat onto my dyno readout

 

I was robbed 25bhp down on PE a coupe of months ago poxy car i guess only making 0.95 bar boost didnt help much still it will be back in the 300s again soon

 

Perhaps this dyno was acurate and not '**** size' figures that the men usually like

 

Agreed Karen, I would rather hear the truth than PE/Star bull****.

Excellent facillities and food.

What reg did you have P1Mark? I saw the P666 on the rollers and it seemed fine

Who scored less than me??? a Justy??

Cheers Mark, a good day out.

 

Did I win the wooden spoon award?



210bhp instead of 245bhp... groan

Ill take that spoon off ya !

No i got less than that mate !!, i had 230bhp at surry rr ,, but this time my dawes device is lossing me power?( i added this after the last rr), now im at 208bhp im down to the factory standard readings?, i thought my exhaust would make it read over standard?,oh well i upset a boxer s on the way home .

Great place thoe very professional set up , and some very powerful imprezas .

Dan

 

my car was P1 X** was fine on the rollers. 305/302. i think the 160+ mph run stuck up my mates **** on the way back killed it. what a pair of complete f**kwits

 

Are you mad, or did you turn right at the roundabout and end up on the race circuit?

 

not mad, just a stupid juvenile idiot. and him as well (are you reading this adams)

use to race bikes against my mate, and there is a bit of 'history' there.

we even managed to have hanbags at dawn moments at the end of races before now, and i suppose its just carried on into later years.

pair of pr*cks would be an apt description.

 

Did anyone beat the 322 bhp evo MR, would be awfully embarrassing if an evo walked off with top honours at a scooby shoot out, surely?

 

Yes, an unassuming white wagon beat that by loads... 355!

Not much to look at on the outside but raised a few eyebrows for sure And such a lovely friendly owner too

 

pickles P1 was about 350 as well.

 

Shane it was 1 of your Dorset lot that robbed you of your spoon, Mark Finch with the blue UK 2000, he rocked the rollers with an almighty 193 bhp, know wonder why he couldn't keep up with me leaving the round abouts with 135 bhp less than me.

Great day and the guy's at WRC done a good job, only other place I had been as good was G force and that was when Chris ( dyno operator at WRC ) was running it.

I was 12 bhp down but 40 lbs/ft more than Power Engineering which I think is not too far off the correct figures for my Scooby. Another interseting thing is PE said my car was running dangerously lean and I should not be driving it, but they couldn't give me any actual figures I have done nothing to my car apart from clean it since PE and yesterday my print out clearly shows the lambda is on the rich side.

WRC is going to be the rolling road I use in future so that I can get consistent comparrisions between mods.

Can someone post the BHP and torque figures for Peter Stone, Duncan White and Steve Earl.

Yeaterday was the first time I have beaten Steve ( Fangoria ) at a rolling road day unfortunately he was in his wifes car

 

It has a 2.5 lump and quite a few other bits on top!

Saw it at another RR day couple of weeks back. At that one it only did 260bhp which he thought was a load of poo.

So not surprised that he got 355 on a proper set of rollers with peeps who understands subaru's (the other place didn't really)

 

A good day out (well done Mark)

nice to have some boost / lambda readings as well


306 / 318 for me

 

I'm with Colin as far as future RR days go. What was also nice is that the owner had time to chat to everyone and the guy doing the RR had some hints and tips for me for the future - so it wasn't just a roll on roll off and fcukoff I felt looked after
