Mapping booked and getting rid of old petrol
Simon - 1/9/08 at 11:30 PM

Peeps,

I finally booked the mapping/rolling road session with Emerald (late Oct, but that's fine as I have a bit to do!!).

Bets on what'll it'll produce are encouraged (for the unitiated - Rover 3.5 V8, injected, a pair KKK03 turbos, big intercooler and large exhausts and 1 bar boost)

I'm hoping for about 320!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Anyway, apart from that, I thought I'd treat the car to a tank of nice fresh fuel, and have a few gallons of the old to get rid off.

Any suggestions - silly or otherwise welcome

ATB

Fire up the car, leave ticking over for 5 mins, engine will stall = old petrol gone. Refill and youyre sorted.

5 mins....he only has a few gallons...with an engine that size it will take atleast 30 seconds

With the price of petrol nowadays I'd just take the end of the fuel line and stick it in my tintops petrol tank and bung it in there on top of a 3/4 full tank.....

320bhp from that spec sounds very conservative.
