Dan I've just seen my dad and he was telling me he had a alpina d3 try and race him and had me Google the power etc they run and then he was asking about the dyno day, I reckon if I keep ribbing him about him having the lowest torque out of us lot he will end up coming with abit of luck

Awesome, tell him to come! Mines only like 350ft lb I think or something like that lol

Think his is only about 300 the peasant. I need more than that lol

A week to go now!! Is he coming?

Any more interested?

Would love to come but in the week is a struggle for me with work. Some nice cars going too, be sure to get some pics Dan. Maybe next time :-)

Just spoke to my dad he's away Friday to Monday in his motor home so can't come. Fair few of us now though. Are we meeting at the place or somewhere else beforehand?

I'd say meet there I'm not sure of anywhere local mate.

All being well I should be running on the rollers now

Does that mean you've gone up to bigger injectors?

I should be chuffed that I'm now at full stage 2....  but my figures are gonna be some of the lowest!!!!

Why do you think that Alex?

I have to hope mine does 245ish bhp consecutively again hopefully those head bolts will have sorted it

...because you're either all running more boost or bigger turbos ha ha!!! ;-)

 

If I see any power loss across runs then I'll be taking your advice and getting the PD150 head bolts it's safe to say.

I'm only running a stage 1 map, 0 box exhaust and a cone so I'll be hoping for 160-170bhp and around 300ft lb so I should think I'll be one of the lower ones

I'll re-phrase Kyle.... lowest of the stage 2 cars!!

 

I really need to stop looking at Xman's turbo for sale thread.... or I'm going to end up with a seriously lighter wallet and a 2260 on the car!!!

Nice to see a couple more on the list

What time are we heading off?

8.30am? I'll check the route later, can't seem to avoid toll roads on my phone.

Who wants to convoy?

Convoy sounds good. Are you coming past Shrewsbury on the A5? Any ideas what sort of time?

I'm more like batman, I like to work alone lol (unless there's anyone near me that is!)
