Cheers Paul,

There were 11 of us from 911uk who met up at Chris's (Weltmeister) new premises to have a run on his very accurate dyno.
He explained in detail the workings of his rollers and the information that could be gained.

As i have recently fitted large diameter headers along with 100 cell cats my main interest was to make sure i wasn't running lean or indeed overfuelling although i have had no excessive fuel smells.

Once on the rollers a massive fan is placed in front of the car to direct cold air through the radiators, another from the ceiling to the rear engine cover and two extractors to take away the exhaust.

A few light runs are conducted to ensure the engine is up to temperature before unleasing full power in third gear.
It's quite an experience stood next to your motor at full chat i can say. Anyway the outcome i'm pleased to say was that she's running just fine well within limits regarding the Lamda sensors and is 3.8% up on stock BHP at 311.4 mainly due to a remap.This figure does not indicate though just how rapid she accelerates through the midrange.

Thankfully as my neighbours would say i'm running a switchable sports exhaust so am able to drive around in 'stealth mode' too, well at least till i'm out of earshot :)

Chris gave us a very favourable group booking price, so maybe worth a future visit for the club.
Individuals are welcome too.
His contact details are,

Chris Davies
The Linden Building
Regent Park
Booth Drive
Park Farm South
Wellingborough
NN8 6GR

08709 911 797

I have no affilation to him

Best regards

Mark
