I say us front runners get a Dyno day at a renowned test station. The question will be where to do it in the country with many people simply messing about with the load adjusters to get better power. I know Northampton Motorsport weren't too bad (they were accurate and said if they though the car was running well (it was great to see my 1.6 Ford Focus with a K&N/ST170 induction setup and a standard exhaust (I took the other one off) hit 100BHP dead on with smooth curves and 135k. The chap with his Focus ST who had a remap saying it would give him 300BHP with a better IC, exhaust etc. (he had them all) only hit 258BHP with the car predetonating in places, and yet he hit 300BHP on some arcetypal rollers).

The weathers messed up my schedule. My mates busy rebuilding frozen motors & since mine is such a big job it has to wait until hes caught up. When all the works done. Only then can I book it into Chipwizards for a remap. That may be September as hes busy! Does a lot of work on fleet vans making them more economical. Can't do it until the next stage is finished. In the south I'd say Weltmiester. Home of the 944 league. Rick woods racing Stockport is more than just a dyno & you could tour the machine shop which is amazing. They can scan any part & reproduce it. Useful when Porsche are deleting so much from the parts catalog. Or Wayne at Milnrow Rochdale. The Porsche expert. Jim has to fit his Supercharger too :bounce:
