    VT's Dyno day!

    Fab day!! Albeit a little chilly!!

    All power was measured at the wheels to make it a fairer day for the manual/auto thing and some good results were acheived.

    JoJo made 232 @ the wheels with 300lbs torque which we were quite pleased with considering she is suffering under load (spark plugs we think)

    VT were the perfect hosts and really made the day worthwhile, great food (thanks Dave) and great hospitality along with good conversation and a carpark full of T5's - what more could you ask for!!

    Some of those those cars made for phenomenal entertainment!!

    We will definately have to do this again later on in the year!

    MANY THANKS TO VOLVO TUNING FOR A GREAT DAY!

    A great day, catering was spectacular, and the facilities were fantastic, Volvo tuning really made the effort and it showed, many thanks and well done

    The graphs of all of the cars run today will be up soon on the gallery, but for now, here are my pictures from the day.

    Nice to meet you all, Hamishs car made over 260whp and so did the C70 with a 19T and remap.

    Sounds like a good day, we were at Dastek in Scotland as well, place that build and supply RR's, and the UK HQ for unichip, Jacq has a post up elsewhere about her results.

    She made 260bhp (235 @ wheels) and 305 lb/ft in the T4, and I ran the Rover in an unfinished state at 15/16psi, 250 bhp (229 @ wheels) and 260 lb/ft, making it 225 bhp and 236 lb/ft per tonne

    Excellent pics, I look forward to pouring over the graphs when they go up, sounds like you all had a great day out, thumbs up to VT then for putting it on

    All fast cars long gone. Sensible family BMW 3 series now.
    Still Volvo links though as my wife has a V50 R design sport and a mildly fettled T4
