Rolling road tuning Aberdeenshire
Does anyone know of a rolling road tuning outfit in the Aberdeenshire (or close to) area?
Today is a good day: I achieved new heights of ineptitude.

We are going to use Wallace Performance in Aberdeen, depends on the ECU you have, but speak to Russ for advice.
Cheers

Thinking of taking mine to wallace for a rolling road check (Just to confirm BHP) but do they need to access the ECU as I have an Alpha fitted and I
think these can only be accessed by authorised people!

If its just for a rolling road run then, no I wouldn't think so, but if anything needs tweeked then probably Yes.

Thanks for the info. Tracked down the guy (and gal) in Ellon, link is here. From contact so far, they seem
really helpful, good looking website and facilities look good. Will let you know how it goes.

Well I have been and was well impressed. Took the car on the rolling road as the guy was about 6'7" and my seat is fixed in position! Got
to sit in the passenger seat while he did a run on the machine; bloody impressive the fireblade engine as it runs up to max revs.
Anyway, car was putting out 129 bhp but had a nasty dip in power about 5,000 rpm. Was fuelling very rich and my idle was crap. End of day, dip had
been levelled out, fuel rich improved significantly and idled sweetly. Different beast altogether, revs so much smoother and really nice to drive
around town. Also picked up that my spark plugs were shot, replaced them and now fantastic.
Cost was smidgen under £500 , was it worth it? Yes, but my god it hurt paying for it.
