Yes Colin is currently doing well in the BTRDA and no they dont have a rolling road What they can do is set your car up properly and you can take it to STAR or DASTEK They are the 2 of the better rolling roads in Scotland

Also you have PM

I agree with Grant.
Greersport is definitely the best place to go.

I always thought that Andy Forrest (Andy.f here on Scoobynet) had a good reputation as a "Tuner".

I have no personal experience of his tuning but the TD05 I got from him.....

Cool

AVA wanted to put my old Cossie 4x4 on their 2wd rollers a few years ago and just jack up the rear axle!! Nuff said. Go down to Bill Greer at Greersport, he's been tuning cars longer than some of us have been born, his list of cars that he has prepped includes Touring cars, Rally cars, 702 BHP RS200, that Hyperlemon Skyline, etc

Agreed, Andy totally transformed my Terzo. He made it so fast even the AP6 pots couldn't stop it

I know it's off topic (apologies) but there's a hillarious thread on Non Scooby Related about someone who has arranged his honeymoon in Scotland and on Day 2 he has an appointment with Andy F for a Remap !!!

LOL
