dude Posted August 10, 2010 Share Posted August 10, 2010 That is a really big advantage. Time saver just for the running in, never mind the diagnosis. And its run in correctly and safely, the computer takes care of the power run,ie amount of load and max rpm etc, and also lets you set the exact amount of load to put on the engine to get the rings to seat properly. Unfortunatly this doesn't come cheap, there is still fuel to pay for and it takes a good few hours to get it set up and to remove from the dyno after.

JamesArup Posted August 11, 2010 Share Posted August 11, 2010 Yay ... this sounds really cool. Congrats and good luck! I'm sure I'll be seeing it soon enough As an amusing side-note, my Brother is now pissed off with me (not sure how this is my fault), because the R32 is with Abbey right now, and he just been told that he's not going to get it back this weekend as scheduled. Their reason .... "We've just lost our best mechanic, so things are running a little slow right now" I think we know where he'll be going from now on Good luck with it all, and see you soon Cheers, J Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im pretty confident the car will run in the 8's at the first or second meeting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dude Posted August 11, 2010 Share Posted August 11, 2010 Staying manual and street car or auto and full drag car mate? Staying 6 speed dude and relatively street legal, stereo etc all going, its a noisy bugger now so may as well carry on losing weight, I want it as much for the mile events as 1/4 mile action.
