Hey up folks,

Just wondered if anyone could recommend a good and reputable place where i can get the car on the rollers??

It seems so pokey at the minute, ever since i fitted the exhaust really. It seems to fly a lot more than it did so to speak. So just wanting to see what its actually producing.

Cheers in advance

Thor racing - I've used them quite a bit for rolling road and not too far for you either mate. Also not too expensive and Pete knows his stuff.

I originally used Abbey motorsport when I had a supercharger and they are also decent although not cheap and is a long drive too. Got LOADS of lovely Skylines though smile.gif


If its just a dyno you're after Rob then I'd say Thor mate. Although I've not used any that might be a little closer

When fininshed the MR2 was pushing 245bhp, was fantastic on fuel and fun to drive, the owner did wait longer than he wanted to, but Steve would not let him have the car back until Steve was 100% right, Steve even sent it back to Noble to be mapped again as he was not happy with it 1st time.
Sam did you see the red Aristo ? that has gone to Noble to.

Hi Rob, you would have to ring them and ask, tell them Charlesworth motors put you in contact, you might get a better price biggrin.gif
