Thanks for organising, Ed and thanks for hosting, Charlie!

Cracking day and a good laugh!

Shame that the monster of the day was a BMW and that Larry's car wouldn't run on the rollers but there was some interesting metal out!

I hope to see you all at the next one! I promise to fix the exhaust and valve stem seals before that to save your lungs!

Really enjoyed today, ditto re the GT3.. What a car, really was looking forward to hearing it at full chat.

It was an E46 M3 with the ESS supercharger conversion!

The chap had fitted it himself and the kit cost £4.5k.

I'd say there was some serious value there considering he had over 511bhp and a lovely spread of torque with no AFR issues!

We also had a 370bhp R33 Skyline, an Integra Type-R with a turbo kit, a couple of Focus RSs, a chipped Audi TT 180 and all the Pork!

Interesting to see just how much more power is available from a 987, compared to a 986!

My modified 550 3.2 on 115k made 270 again. More than Adams 3.2 987 which was obviously down but less than Pete's lightly modified 297 3.4 987. Deans RS60 pulled over 320 which was more than either of the 3.6 996!

Couldn't run as the traction control/ PDK didn't like the front wheels stationary while the rears spun up frown

Didn't use the dyno run setting on ECU via PIWIS?

Doesn't have a PIWIS (mentioned earlier in the thread), sadly.

Charlie/ SRR isn't a Porsche garage so I don't think he can justify the investment, yet.

I don't want to put words into his mouth though so he may login and say some more on the subject...
