???After fitting a K&n's, new exhaust, sparkplugs and throttle body, I want a good tune up. On the rolling road what do they actually do as isn't everything controlled by the ecu, I don't want it chipped. On an older car there are things to change around like mixture and jets can someone explain please.  |

Yeah all booked up, meeting up at Halfords with the guys. I'll post up the figures when I get them. I think it'll be less than I'm hoping for, 125bhp I reckon. If you guess closer colin I'll buy you a pint at the next meal!

Hello Colin had a great day. Results BHP 146.4 Not bad for a 10 year old car. 130 ft/lb of torque. After me and Jack went for a drive to Minehead on to Porlock and Lynmouth what a great stretch of road. . I owe you a pint!

Hi Simon! Good result (the bhp and the tourque - not the pint that is!!) Glad you enjoyed the day and the scenic drive - fantastic coastline, maybe we should ask James to sort a run out that way when we next meet at Cheddar |
