Surrey Rolling Road - Saturday 27th March

[Ekona]

Possibly something to sort out on the day John, but is there any danger of me having at least 4 runs instead of 3? I only ask as the general consensus from the Zed lads is that you only get a sensible reading from the car after a minimum of 4 runs due to the way the stupid ECU works, so I'd really like to do that if possible. I have absolutely no issues with paying for two lots if that makes any difference, after all it'd be a waste to come away without a true result.

Let me know if you need more cash to cover it and I'll pop it over.

No idea, I've got to do 2 lots of runs. I'll ask Charlie.

[Ekona]

Top man, cheers fella

And sorry for being a PITA

Charlie's said that's OK, no extra cash required Also said I can do my ECU tests as one run if I can swap it while on the dyno...

[Ekona]

Great stuff, thanks for sorting that out.

Is it ok to add another spectator ? They're a member of the Mk1Mr2 club from Hayling island. I've sent them a link to this thread and am waiting on an answer.

[Tiamat]

May have another spectator, in a Hyundai, but not too sure yet, again waiting on replies. Think also RedMK1 (Richard) will be in attendance as a passenger with either me or Jaspa.

[toxo]

Not a problem at all, spectating is still at pretty low numbers. I forgot to advertise this event on the MK1 club

Malcolm, is Rich wanting to come back to ours after for the curry/poker night ?

[toxo]

If you could that would be great, am a bit busy today!

I _may_ have an issue with the car having an MOT by then - it runs out on the 26th and I'm away from this weekend till the 26th...
However, if the car makes it, any chance I can have a run with standard ecu and a run with a piggyback ecu to compare the differences?

As long as you can do the ECU swap in 5 minutes while the car is strapped to the dyno then that's fine.

Do they not give time between the dyno runs? Most companies do a run per car then again and again etc, on a rota system. Will need time to reset the ECU.

3 or 4 runs back to back at SRR each time I've seen anything run. Seems a quick and les labour intensive way to do it.

[Ekona]

Always been back to back at any of the 5 or 6 places I've had dynos over the years too.

When I went to Millway they ran runs with gaps between to allow tuning and changes

That's more like the service you get when you're doing mapping rather than just power runs.

Was just for power runs...
