Same here. I went to bed at 4:10am last night and was up at 7:00 this morning so I should be a wreck by now, but am still wide awake. I think it is time for beer. Are we seeing you at J28?

Chris

182.4BHP @ 6,128RPM :thumbup:

Just back home myself.

Good to see such a turnout, the poor guys at IP were running cars on the rollers nonstop from about 09:30 till around 16:30 which must be one of the longest running RR days on record. They still had not finished when I left, and were doing maps and tweaks.

For those that left, des run his car on the rollers which despite a boost leak run more than 350bhp.

well done bertee you should have gone with a map....lol

Was a good run down in the morning, nice little cross country route.

bloody hell would have stayed to watch that if we new it was running.......

(jaw drop icon) lovely motor :D :D

Just to echo the comments so far, was a great day! Was good to see many familiar faces as well as new ones. Thanks Mike for leading the convey there too. :)

I was quite chuffed with my results in the end! :thumbup:

PS I got sunburnt. :(

I know how you feel, I only managed 213 :(

I left before you tuned up though Rich.

Good to meet everyone else, would have liked to have hung around but I had a ticket for the football.

And a big thank you to Des and Mike for each sponsoring me for the Great North Run that I am doing next week.

Great day out had here also,thanx des for sorting it all out,top guy...top car also!!!!!!

Nice to meet some fellow Briskodians all really friendly and Berreta...well he should of been a standup comic,hilarious!!!!!

Max power 187.2bhp @ 6273rpm 147.7bhp at wheels

Max torque 173.0 lbft @ 3609rpm

You sure you're talking about the same person? :confused: ;)

Twas a good day nice to meet you all old and new.And thank you des for organising the sunshine.:D.And even Dave u turned up.:orb_not_wAnd i blame emily for the M25 being closed.:mad::rolleyes::P:D

Good day and a good turn out :D

Mike was still running cars past 7pm :rofl:

My car needs a few tweaks and then it should be running much better.

216 bhp and 236 Lbs/ft but it pulls very well so when it's running as it should :D

Yep, we left IP at about 7.40 - longest RR day EVER. Then we went for unfeasibly large fish and chips in town, good end to a top day.

I left home at 4.45 this morning, and just got in! :eek:

VERY pleased with my power, 225bhp! :D:D:D:D Only things changed since my last run at 215bhp are a replacement panel filter, and Optimax instead of supermarket fuel. Over the moon!!

Cheers everyone for an excellent day. Nice to see some familiar faces, and meet some new people too. Really good turn out, great weather, great cars. :thumbup:

Oh, and did I mention, 225bhp!! :D:D:D

And the lad with the GT28 on his black Octy - it sounded EPIC in the Dartford Tunnel - popping and banging! :rofl:

Mike is back in there today sorting cars that had problems on Saturday. How can you knock that level of service.

Very good to see all you guys and gals, twas a fantastic turn out. Some good results and some not so good.

Unfortunately my car had a slight problem on the way down there. :rolleyes: The waste gate unbolted itself and was laying on the gearbox. With the aid of Gerry :thumbup:we managed to bolt it back on, but it looks like a seal has gone missing leaking boost. The Red Devil still manage 383bhp and 387ft/lb at 5500rpm with only 1.37bar leaking lots of boost, roll on 2bar.

A very big thanks to Mike and the IP crew for a great day, well done. :thumbup:

Oh did I mention Tom got 225bhp, shame he was beaten by a Lemon.

I think we all owe Mike and all at IP a vote of thanks for the day that turned out very well, and as Fezboy has stated Mike was still tweaking our cars at nearly 19.00hrs.

Again thanks to Mike at IP for seeing that mine was only running 221bhp and should do more, ran it four times, and then had a go at it after the others had run, and managed 226bhp and 250+ lb ft torque, but still with a fuelling problem at 5500+ rpm as the injectors were asking for more fuel and not getting it , so now to change the fuel filter and see what happens, but for that it would have run decent figures.

Well thats my excuse, backed up by Mike at IP......................LOL

The fish and chips were of epic in proportions, but at least some of us finished the plate full, Fezboy the lightweight left half a plate full...............................LOL

Thanks to Tom and Andy for the spirited ride home, and yes, Andyrews car was deafing going through the tunnel back to Essex and it sounded as though the artillery were firing their guns behind us , and Tom that car of yours goes like a dream, well done mate.

I think Fezboy might be in the market for a Sat Nav, as only he could miss the turn off from the A2 onto the M25 when we are all in a line...........LOL

Delcac, now do I thank him or hate him for the wind up on my car on its first run on the rollers, we will discuss that one later on the phone....LOL

Des, dont you call my car a lemon....LOL and as for the taxi service to fix your car, you know your welcome anytime mate.

Oh, did I mention mine ran 226.2 BHP...........LOL

Jason, what are you trying to say about my sense of humour????????????

Jason, what are you trying to say about my sense of humour????????????

I suppose in a Victor Meldrew way, you do. :P :thumbup:

I think your having a "Radox" if you think it will run that late.

:rofl::rofl: We ended up leaving at gone 7:00! all credit to Mike and Impossible Performance for staying on to work with the cars into the evening. And they're also there today looking at a fueling issue with one of them before its remap. Dedication indeed. :)

Nicely sunburnt today :rolleyes:

My results:

188.6 bhp @ 5,993 rpm (crank)

151.7 bhp @ 5,927 rpm (wheels)

179.8 lbft @ 2,675 rpm

peak boost - 9.9 psi

couldn't believe it as it's completely standard apart from a tankful of V-Power... and has just passed the 100k mark! :eek:

Gerry I will try and get that video up on Youtube soon :thumbup:
