RSTuning RR Day



  Trophy,R26,GSXR1000
Yeah that's me mate, still have the Trophy, as a few of the lads (and girls, CA ;)) know it's away getting a new fancy turbo set up done. When it's finished it'll be the most extreme, standard looking Clio 182 ever. If carlsberg made Clio trophys this would be it, think six speed LSD and 500 Bhp :D

That's good to hear mate! Nice to meet you too!

1.6 Zetec S went on the rollers. Bet he wishes he didnt now though.

Rhys also wishes he didn't.

Sometimes its good to go on a RR as more of a diagnostics check more than anything else though. So those that didnt make power know theres something wrong that they otherwise, wouldnt have known about.

+1. Now that I know my timing is out, I can go and get it sorted!

Specky left the ATW power on screen when he ran it so scare Al ;)

It made 116hp

Ahhh I wondered what had gone on. I asked what the power was because we all saw like 96 etc and were like oh dear, then someone came over and fiddled with the computer and it was reading 116, thought he was trying to make him feel better :p

I was stood right near you when he said that and i said to my mate, bet its northwest performance that did his cambelt. Someone said it was NWP that did it, was it? They are getting a bad rep on here, i paid the extra when i had my 182 and went to birchdown. Get my R26 serviced there now, take it there mate i was talking to them and they have done a few cambelt timings that NWP have mucked up. Yours was the bean with black wheels? Loved it, lowered i presume? looks spot on!

Yeah he had it done at NWP - not a great ad for them :S I've had hit and miss experience with them too.. think anything major i'd personally be tempted to get it done at Birchdown as it appears to be well worth the little extra that it costs to get them to do it.

Heres your video from the RR Ty:

Im either gonna get mine done there or with fred. Fred @ btm has always done me good, i know its a fair drive but if i get the service i don't mind.

I agree that even if you weren't really that bothered about knowing what your car was putting out, that it was good to actually see if it was healthy or not. I found out that I actually had a really bad map where it looked like all someone had done was turned the boost up. I had good initial torque (285) then it trailed off quite quickly after 4000rpm and only made 212.5bhp

Hopefully I'll be back there before Christmas to get a remap and set up running properly.

Was a good day out and had a good laugh! Even I it was at my expense :-/
