quick video from thise weekends rolling road quality isnt great but sound makes up for it car made 193.1bhp@fly

that is awesome, what it lacks in picture quality it certainly makes up for with the sound! I suppose you dont appreciate how loud it is when the car is moving.

193 is awesome, what mods you done to achieve that?

top work!

Sweet sounding Zed there Rich - hmmm... maybe mine isn't so noisy after all. What have you got on this one in terms of modifications? Also what does 193 on the fly mean on the road? And one final question - where do you find a rolling road to test on? Oh go on then, for a Brucie bonus - how much did it cost?

@fly figures is bassicly a estimation of what a cars power is before transmission losses, for instance the zs made 158bhp@ the wheels and they then calculate from that what the actual power at the fly is.

rolling roads are all over the place best to do a search on google for one in your area or atend a rolling road day with a club which is what i did with rovertech. cost was £25+£5 for a fueling check.

mods where just a very good servicedone this week involving oil change, brand new denso plugs fitted, throttle body removed and cleaned, inlet plenum removed and cleaned, brand new maxiflow cold air induction kit with intake located in the inner wing. tank of optimax with some injection cleaner, and a supper chip. oh and a exhuast that the back box actualy seperated from the rest of the system on the first run hence why she sounds so loud.

Cheers for that - I have found a rolling road locally and am setting up a day for some time in January - see the England events... http://www.themgzs.co.uk/vb/showthread.php?t=2056 if you are interested.

Who did the service for you and how much did all of that set you back - or are you going to make me jealous and say that you did it all yourself like some kind of superhero (just noticed the smiley so had to use it - bit of a fan).

Rich - the work I have done so far on mine is to replace the rear drivers side door window seal that sits against the B Pillar and remove a V6 sticker from when I bought it that I didn't like. I have assisted in fixing a sunroof and cleaning out the inlet (with a spray) but no messing with the engine bits (yet).

Oh - I have filled it with V Power a few times - does that count? Will get there soon on the fettling front... watch this space... I may attain super hero status yet...
