Almost a year after the turbo let go and old faithful had a hybrid turbo and other ancialliaries fitted I got around to getting on the rollers this afternoon.

I had been keen to get figures from a Dyno Dynamics rolling road as all other dyno runs that have been consistent were on the Dyno Dynamics Rollers @ JKM. Pre-turbo works last year the car had run +/- 10bhp over 3 4 years on the same rollers so I have confidence in the DD RR.

Took the car to SPTuning LTD in Burbage and managed to get onto the rollers straight away.

Great looking curve with a lovely wide powerband

Here's what it ran before the works with the standard turbo and a generic AmD map

With J5 jnr number 2 on the way in October and the Roomster out of warranty, I've been having really, really naughty thoughts of late about Briskoda's first 200BHP Roomster.

Everything in the front of the fabia out, and drop it in the Roomster.......

nice one mate, once i have my clutch in and its all bedded in i look forward to getting mine on a rr

thats a very mild map, what turbo is it?

Garrett GT149VB or whatever it's called.

I specifically requested a reasonably sympathetic map when the work was done as maxing out the turbo was not my aim. Asking for a good solid 200bhp or so as the work was done a car with 140k on the clock and I was/am concious of longevity rather than headline figures.

congrats mate!! I'm hoping to join your club soon, just need to find a local rolling road!

nice, not bad for such high mileage eh?

Nice, im happy with mine at 201.2. pulls very strong and I know the turbo isnt on its limit.

Get yourself over to JKM in Portsmouth, as I mentioned in post #1 thier rollers proved to be very consistent over 3 years with my car.

Indeed. Again as I mentioned before, a considerable amount of thought on my part and questioning with Dan at Tunrner Race Developments happened before comitting to the works.

I had concerns about it given there was +/- 135k on the clock when the original factory turbo let go. Dan carried out a thourough check of cams etc. at the time to ensure everything was ok.

I used to travel down from Gloucester. Now it's a 3.5hr trip :( and time off from work is rare.

It'd be worth giving Kate @ JKM a bell an check available dates for an RR day. I'd arrange myself but wouldn't be able to commit to getting time off :'(
