Default RR shoot out at XO Motorsport Team Valley

Sorry, should read XO Powertuning

My mates on the GT4 Owners club & Enthusiasts club are organising a rolling road day for Saturday the 1st of December.

As I am still a member, I put my name down (I now cant run due to the APS TMIC holding 1.5bar through to 6500rpm and the car was only mapped to 1.4bar) and asked if they wanted some number building up, Mark said yes, can do, so here we go.

XO Powertuning is near Gateshead on Team Valley Industrial Estate I believe.

Anybody interested?

Going to be around £35-40 a car depending on numbers.

the time will be 9.30 saturday 1st december at

XO POWERTUNING Ltd
unit 382a jedburgh court
team valley trading estate
gateshead
NE11 0BQ

Only 7 so far, all Jap Turbo cars welcome.

have you not considered your car is peaking at 1.5bar now due to colder temps, My car is mapped to 1.5bar but peaks at just over 1.7bar

I have considered this yes but it holds 1.5bar from 3000rpm and its just not worth the risk when my map man said its not mapped to 1.5bar from what he can remember.

Its road mapped also which wont help

Cheers for coming Steve, nice to meet you.

Didn't get to talk to your mate, he didn't look friendly so I didn't try to hard

I thought she was going to jump out the rollers on the first run, the face of the guy that was running your car was pish funny, looked like he almost shat his pants

I was talking to him today and he got a little bit of a shock The amount of time they spent strapping mine down after that was funny


They asked me If I wanted to run mine today but I still dont have my dccd working properly so it would of been another waste of time

Steve,

I do reckon there rollers were right as you should need to test the s 6 speed in fifth to get an accurate reading.

The way yours nearly jumped out of the rollers indicates to me its more than the quoted figure and an RS4 driver on the way back will say mine is running more than 290hp also.

Good day though, enjoyed it.
