Really good garage and a genuine nice guy, Kevin from the scooby clinic at Wingerworth Nr Chesterfield Tel:[phone]/591664
Don't be put off by the name, this was one of the only garages that could do a 4 wheel drive rear engined car!

This is without a rider, once the rider is on, the bike will weigh 50% more.

If your so disappointed with it, why have you cross posted it on three forums?

Dave race i cross posted this because the guy that did it for me (for free) was a really nice guy (note his name and phone number) so i thought if i could give him a little biz it would show my appreciation, I don't like to have to respond to sad replys like this so all i can say "dick" is get a life and stop trying to pick fault with other people's threads!!

Nope ya wrong the machine was set up to give rear wheel readings....fact. The machine can be set to give at the crank or the wheels. We were told it was set for RWP.
MB: Even on your own site you say that you can give power at the wheels or crank dyno readings.
And here is another example of the same type dyno that was calibrated to give both flywheel and at the wheel readings. This pair of dyno readings are for a ferrari 348. The 348 is rated at 300 HP which is 100bhp less than a 355. Factory figures. So all dyno readouts i have posted are with in that ball park.

Jealous? Nah, if you had a 430 maybe More fun seeing your face as I blast on by!! Aiming for over 400 bhp with my new build. 355's are still lovely cars though...

Not 50% but i take your point.
The bottom line is it still ate supercars for breakfast, at least at any speed up to 150 mph it did!
For £7000 new.

Oh dear but i drive an F430 on a regular basis any ways, as well as a 360 spidersThats how i also know that the dyno figures were at the wheels and correct, the F430 was dynoed the same days as the 355 and that was knocking out 420ish at the wheels.
