East Anglian Rolling Road Day.

After the success of the first day in January.

There is going to be a second day.

Always a really good social event for fellow minded car nuts.

See thread here for details:

My dyno results from last friday

Air/Fuel mixture showing how bad the jetting is

They have sent me shopping for new jets. Specifically:
Idle correction larger by 0.10
Mains smaller by 5 to 10
Air correction smaller by 10 to 20

A great hour and £80 well spent. Steve really knows his engines and seemed very happy tweaking bits and bobs.

Dunno if i will make the piston heads day but i will be back, when my headache has gone!

Noise or fumes?

Helped them build the booth. The extraction system wasn't finished but we still ran steve's cossie up on the rollers because we were too excited.

Probably wasn't a great idea, I was fast asleep by 8 o'clock that night!


Glad you had a good session.

I shall be down there to map my Megasquirt as soon as shes running.

Doug.

Neil seemed to expect me to be phased standing by the car on a power run. I guess people who are normally inside their tin boxes get a worried when they hear it from the outside.

The fumes were the problem for us all, proper jetting may help but i think they need more work on the extraction!

Its a neat system they have there. Did you hear the story of the installers running a BMW up to 170mph without strapping it down. Then dropping it into neutral and getting out of the car as it slows! eek!

Has your beast made it onto the road yet?

Not had mine on the rollers yet.

The South Africans that put it in were very confident!

I have seen skyline make 760BHP on their rollers. Apparently he made just over 800BHP until the owner realised he had left the signal pipe off the actuator on his new turbo!
Bloody jap stuff!
