As above, would this affect performance?

Thanks

Yes.

Does ham come from pigs?

Alan Jeffery

Absolutely, along with sticking brakes, flat tyres, incorrect throttle travel due to having a mat under the pedal, dirty air filters, eeeeeeccccctttt....

My steering wheel has been stolen, would that effect my cars cornering ability ??

mestonian

No if you have a really tight grip to hold the hub and a 360 degree rotating wrist...

Where can I buy a 360 degree rotating wrist ??

Would Halfords sell them ?

its the kind of thing halfords would sell, but it would be ridiculously expensive, like the rest of the crap from there...

mestonian

Yeah, but they'll charge a 90 degree arm and a 270 degree leg for it...

Yes, but you should notice it on the road if you do have a slipping clutch Jamie. I once tried to put a low result down to a slipping clutch but quickly found out it wasn't slipping and to accept the figures, it just part of the rr lottery mate.

At one session all scoobies were down by about 50bhp each, except for a couple of evo's whose results were ok.

Hi iainmilford, thanks I was just wondering as I had my car remapped with a very high clutch soon after started to slip. Today I've had fitted a excedy clutch kit would my car seem quicker? Should be back to top performance?

Did you get your driving licence free with a box of Shreddies?

Lol another scoobynet keyboard warrior

IainMilford

yes it should make a difference,or at least eradicate what was wrong in the first place, I doubt it's going to give you loads more hp on the rollers though

JamieJerkovic

Yeah I was just questioning it. I'm not to keen to be chasing numbers lol

it depends who,s rollers !!

Alan Jeffery

I have driven a car using a pair of mole grips. The cornering wasn't affected!

Will fitting the space saver effect my car's high speed handling??

If the dyno is set up correctly what would cause a higher reading, could it be tyres slipping on the dyno, or would that also give a lower figure?

mestonian

Ask a silly question, get a silly answer.

To many stupid ***** on here. Little key board warriors

mestonian

Calm down, there's always going to be one or two goons out to take the ****, but the majority on here are a helpful and supportive bunch, however I've learnt to think before posting and the fact is, to ask if a slipping clutch will affect rolling road figures is a silly question, If your clutch ain't holding then it isn't transferring all the power available to the drivetrain, so yes of course it will affect the figures. If I cried at everyone who ever took **** a little bit out of me I'd have left here a long time ago, it's called banter and there is no malice intended I believe.

I asked because I wasn't sure how much of a difference it would actually make. Yes I know people are very helpfull on here and I know there going to be banter lol. I've just had a bad day! Work van broken down in london.. I live in cheltenham!

chopperman

Obviously the amount of difference it would make depends on how much the clutch is slipping.

chopperman

It would cause a lower reading as some of the power and torque would not be transferred to the power train. Most dynos work off the wheels or hubs which is after the clutch. The only method that would not be effected by the clutch is a crank brake.

I totally see why so many people have given up with this site, so surprised the sites still running lol. Some people need to get out more, go join a gym or something!

So what would cause a higher than expected figure if everything was set up correctly?
