will see what coin is like on Saturday if i have some spare coin i will run too

I will also be fetching some wheel spacers and bolts for sale and a mk2 oct honey comb grill with vrs badge

Any good wheel alignment places near the RR?

 

Been ****ing around with the front end so much on mine I should probably get it straightened out

Mmmmmmm,  I might have a ride over, need nothing doing but would be nice to meet a few new faces.

 

 

I'll do my best...............

Do you think I could turn up and pay on the day?

We have a couple that might be doing that, obviously with the numbers at the amount they are you just might have to wait awhile, but i don't think it will be a problem

Thanks for a great morning lads.  I'm proud to have been the person with the lowest BHP on the day.

Thanks for coming everyone, I hope everyone was pleased with there results

Any pics? Wish I could have come over but swmbo needed the car

I took two haha fail

And the ignis, brought back fond memory's

Im happy with my results of 222.9bhp and 375lb/ft (power down due to winter tyres)

Thanks for coming everyone, I hope everyone was pleased with there results

 

Everyone except you I think? :p

 

Though I wasn't happy that the last minute show up knocked me off the meaningless 'top bhp of the day' spot :P

Pleased with that, 115.3 from factory isn't bad when it's supposed to be 105

Just got back to Scarborough.

What did your Ignis put out in the end? Was worried my 306 would be the lowest with 121  Was nice to chat to you though, still debating on going for an Octavia vrs then?

 

Yes thanks for a good morning and for organising it Trevorb33

Was a good turn out wasn't expected to go on rollers but glad I did

Nice to meet everyone sorry I was grumpy but I have just come off my shifts

I only took one too

Sorry I couldn't make it chaps. if another one is organised, my car will be available for someone to take along, it would be nice to know what it makes, it's been a bit of a bugger this week.........

Brace yourself.  The Ignis managed a mighty 113.0 bhp!  I was well happy with that as it was supposed to produce 107 back in 2005.  I suppose the custom exhaust and K&N made a difference.  In theory, I paid £89.33 per extra horsepower to get there.  Money well spent?

 

As for a replacement for the Vectra, I've been looking at the Mk2 vRS estate but I'm not sure the boot is big enough for what I need.  I'm also looking at a Vectra estate, but the 150 Sri diesel version.  Apparently they cope well with a remap and become quite a rapid barge.  A set of lowering springs, some new rims and it'll be okay for a bit. Won't be a VXR but it'll do to transport the kids around.

I didn't think you were that grumpy.  I appreciated you letting me have a nosey around your car too.  I was well impressed with your results, especially seeing as the car looked so stock.

Haha you didnt get the lowest then! the lad with the other 306 in blue got 92bhp, so you actually got 20bhp more than the lowest! Those are not cheap gains! I only spent £5 per bhp aha!

Id advise against anything diesel that has a DMF and DPF (= big repair bills!) and can be found on the 1.9 150 diesel, which isnt a massively great engine anyway reliability wise as summarised here http://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?t=1254499) Id be looking at petrol for anything used, unless its brand new with warranty.
