12 hours until my car goes on the rollers [8D] Expect to see another graph here tomorrow. We've gone dyno mad [8|]

300 Bhp (258 at the wheels) and 330lbft of torque [] That's a 13 bhp increase since November just for the effort of sticking a few more washers in my wastegate [&:] it does still bleed boost after 5000rpm so a TiAL DPW would help there (and be a darned sight easier to adjust)
Out of interest I also stuck the S2 on the rollers to see how the old girl is shaping up after 15 years and nearly 150,000 miles - 207 Bhp and 182 lbft of torque, compared with 211 when it left the factory [] That's a pretty good testimony to Porsche engineering and build quality
A friend was with me in a standard 1985 220bhp Turbo, it made 219Bhp today [] He's very happy and will be back when he's fitted his Promax/ Guru kit

Damn, must get that Tial wastegate ordered or at least fit the shims that came with my guru / promax kit

Pah [] it was 16 degrees down here yesterday, if it had been 10 degrees or cooler I'd have been over 400 [][][]
All that said though I won't be ready for a final remap of the Turbo until November at best because I want to blow my bonus on it and I don't get that until October [>:]

The chap who runs JamSport in Northampton (Danny) offered to host a rolling road day for a group of us. This would be purely for power tests to see what state your engine is currently in (or how modifications have worked) at a price of £25 each +vat
If anyone wanted they could also bring along Wayne from ChipWizzards to give tuning advice. Wayne is used by many of the Porsche Club racers to tune their cars. This would obviously cost a lot more as Wayne is expensive and really knows his stuff. I doubt there would be time for anyone to have their car remapped by him on the day as that would take 3-4 hours, and with each car taking about 30 mins just to power test we simply couldn't fit it in. Danny also said they could fire up a BBQ out the back to keep us fed and entertained.
JamSport is a small backstreet tuning company, more used to dealing with Cosworths and Saxos etc but the three blokes that work there are very keen and I think eager to forge links with Porsche cars. They have one Sun rolling road and two vehicle lifts and a host of tools. The rolling road provides a graph of Bhp and torque but they cannot plot air fuel ratios or amount of boost . They do have a sensor that they shove up the exhaust to give a simple 'you are running too rich or lean' statement. They also do plain car servicing (we had to wait while they finished off a Fiesta Zetec yesterday) they also have a ceiling high stack of Max Power magazines with various scantily clad ladies for those inclined [] Baseball caps can be lent to any that do not yet own their own yet []
If anyone is interested in such a day then post here and then we'll start the haggling on dates. I presume a Saturday would fit in better with most people

Mine is standard, and never been on a roller, would be good to see what can be acheived from the other cars.

I'll wait another week or so to see if we have any other takers then I'll get hold of JamSport and try for some dates.

Having spent a large part of my professional (past) career in control sytems, Power engineering and often around dynamometers, engines and the like, I'm always interested to see another one and hear about ideas. Also, it's local to me.

I had not spotted this one but I could be easily persuaded if there is room to tag along aswell.
Again mine is standard so it would be nice to see how she is performing, before anyone of you lot persuade me to the road of rack and ruin and MODS!!!
Please keep me informed.
Cheers
