thanks to Austec!

just like to give Austec in Crawley a good 
took my 500 griff in for a rolling road session saturday and was very impressed with the level of service, my wife was soon settled with a cup of coffee in front of the television in their waiting room, whilst Tom started to set the car up on the rollers.
He straight away found that one of the lambda sensors was malfunctioning, and the voltage on the throttle potentionmeter was low, so within a few minutes the new sensor was fitted and the throttle pot adjusted and she was purring away on tickover.
Tom then started the rolling road runs, and was very pleased that this " was one of the better standard griffs", once the tyres had dried out, as she was spinning up on the rollers!
At about 5000 to 5500 rpm the car was producing 272hp at the wheels.
And the noise was awesome, to be able to hear the exhaust note from behind the car at those speeds, 140 to 150mph, was amazing.
All said and done it was a very worthwhile experience, Tom gave me many pointers on jobs that I intend to do over the winter, and the car now seems to be running much smoother and more responsive low down from just a couple of small changes , and adjustments.
As many people have also said before, Austec, highly recommended.
