had a great day , long way to go just to get you car dynoed ther and back includig getting lost in the middle of london :oops: 450 miles , operaters were well impressed when cab reved off the clock 8200 rpm , lots annd lots of noise , lots of revs , yet only 161 brake and 150 pound of touqe, not really taking any notice , car flys , stick your foot down at a ton and it feels like its turboed, i think i was the highest valver ther , though. worth the trip just for the technical gossip ,, worked out whats blowing up my drive shafts , thrugh talking to one of the golf racers , even bought myelf a new van on the way back :D

your car flys because of the 150 lb torque...i am guessing the 161 bhp is at the wheels??? if thats the case your looking at about 180+ at the fly :twisted:

sounds like a very good result to me paul, so why are you breaking driveshafts?

LOL @ buying a van too, your crazy :D

just checked sheet and it is at the fly , how ever .every bodies figures were low.
should have seen the operators faces when it reved up , then every one started laughing ther heads off, eddie the main operater comments were WOW . just like the old jetta days :lol:
well i have only had my old van for 19 years , just want to improve my street cred a little
cup cars have a chunk taken out of chassie legg, under heavy cornering it making contact with chassie .hit a kerb or bump at that point and end of inner cv ,
