Awesome day

many thanks to Gary, Christian and sausage fingers.

Gutted about the Cobra, hope it gets fixed quick. That thing was mental!!

Just over 400 at the wheels (470 flywheel) for me, but there's always potential for more

What a great day.

Thanks to the whole team at APT. And Jo (Burger Lady). And the lads from BigPower.

Precision timing on the Dynos. Never seens so many vehicles run in such quick succession. Proper Applause from me!!

Good to see that Honda have their engine management spot on. 201bhp all day long.

Bring on the next event. The Saturday Snetterton Track day looks the business.

Like many stated before was my 1st BP meet and I must say was a really good 1. Some simply imence cars turned up
Personally I was royally dissapointed and I'm consiquiently thinking about selling up. I think a few of us Honda boys had bad days come to that lol.
Never mind, was good to meet a few of you and see some amazing machinery.
Thanks, Tom

It made me grin too. I was quite happy with the result - some nice consistant power runs.

Definitely a big thanks out to APT and Big power for a wonderfully organized event. By far the best dyno day I have ever attended, except for the head gasket lol. It was great to meet everyone. A lot of really nice cars there. I will definitely be attending more events. Oh and remember NEVER GET BP ULTIMATE LOL. I will give Paul a call next time for some race gas, and maybe some laughing gas. The wife was very understanding about the repairs until I mentioned ported heads and cams hahahaha! Oh well. I will post some repair pics and stuff later on.

To those of you that were dissapointed about your numbers. Numbers are just that. You gotta make changes and keep going to the same dyno to see improvements. I thought my numbers were low my first time at APT last year. I now like their dyno better because if you make big power on their dyno, well then you are doing pretty damn good. Plus I gained 120bhp by raising my psi from 1.2 bar to 1.6 on their dyno. Next time it will be 2 bar :twisted:
