Anyone planning a Dyno Day, or would like to go to one?

Pretty much identical to what I - think- my T5 has. Definitely interested now.

I will have a chat with him and depending on the date I might coax him along.

MouthBoy · 9 Jul 2019 at 13:26

Ok so had a chat and depending on the day he is well up for this. Must be a 4WD dyno though for the V70R, unsure if this affects plans?

By load I mean the rolling resistance of the dyno. Getting this wrong is what made the overheating worse as some of the pulls were very long!

Maybe it's because I'm an annoying sod, but they did change the ramp rates for mine and the old mans cars last time we were there when I asked.

Potentially interested if location suits. FK8 type R.

Nice one. Depending on the day me and the old man will attend more than likely. Looking to get the Merc dyno'd too before I remap it. Wont be anything special but want a starting figure really.

Surprised you didn't tell them to step aside and run the dyno for them

RE Performance in Swindon getting a 4wd Maha installed.

Well respected as a tuning place, lots of tasty supercar builds there so might be worth shortlisting.

i could come for the day out, and for laughs we can bet what my standard Focus 1800 does on the dyno ?

MouthBoy · 26 Jul 2019 at 18:27

Is it worth starting a list of interested people and their cars? Would be good to see who is looking to bring what. I will bring my Mercedes 250d and my old man will bring his V70R if we able to make the day.

RE Performance are up for doing dyno days, but I haven't got a dyno cell expected completion date yet. However, it's good to know!

MouthBoy · 29 Jul 2019 at 19:07

I am up for either Surrey or TDR in Warwick. Kent and Cambridge are too far for my old man really, although I may still be temped with the Cambridge one if it was just me.

Micloi · 29 Jul 2019 at 19:11

If we do Warwick we can maybe combine it again with a drive and lunch at Caffeine and Machine?

ScoobyDoo69 · 29 Jul 2019 at 19:59

Depends on how many cars and expected finish time. But yes, C&M would be on the to do list if not far from it!
