I believe we have a few people who are keen to get their cars back on the rollers. The session will be held at Wallace Performance in Aberdeen http://www.wallaceperformance.co.ukwith our in-house RR operator Matty running the dyno. Day starts at about 10am but you can turn up a bit earlier if you fancy. 2 power runs will be completed for £30. You can also get various technical advice (good or bad ) from the assortment of coupe owners on-hand. Names: Matty mattB Mrs Fran? Kelv27 Baz76 sparkyman doug20vt Hubby Noel20VT?

i still dont know really, got a new prv from jap and that solved it straight away, just goes straight to 1.2 bar and stays there until it starts to tail off, dont know if the prv that baz lent me on the day wasnt working quite right or something, still think i have a boost leak somewhere though as did the boost leak test and can hear a hissing sound from near the inlet manifold but just cant locate it, at least it has stopped the overboosting though so quite happy

tried feeling around them and putting water over them as well as soapy bubbles but just cant locate it, wondered if it might be the rocker cover gasket as it looks as if it has had a bodge fix applied to it at some point, have done the test a few times but just cant find it

If not, it probably doesn't make so much of a difference. 27th/28th would probably be ok for me as i`m going down to the AGM and it would give me a wee break between meets . Baz

I was speaking the Noel again yesterday and he`s keen to go to this RR meet I might even pop up again just to see if a set of clean injectors make a difference too . Baz Hello boys - apologies for long time since posting - damn its hard working having two kids and your own business. Anyway I would be well up for coming to this - plus the coupe isnt seeing much action at the moment as putting the miles on the work van. Still would be really keen to see how the old girl fairs - plus Baz has had his hands all over her for recent disc/pad upgrade and MOT so she's running sweet a sa nut at the moment! One of our supplers had a bring your own night at knockhill and it was awesome - spanked a few motors and went back a few weeks later whcih means i now know how to put it round without losing half the treat of my tyres! I dont know how much this costs but it would be great if we could get a night like that for us lot next year - if you go to the full marques night i think its about 60 quid for two hours - if we had about 20 of us (could include non coupes??) it would probably be something similar i would have thought (correct me anyone who has looked into this before!). anyway maybe see you at end of september in Aberdeen. Cheers Noel

I live near Dollar so Aberdeen wouldn't have been too much of a trip... Just a thought thou if matty's a coup guy, could someone send me his contact details as I'd like to get the old girl set up properly, cheers tim

I'm afraid his powers were weak and he was swayed by the dark side. We're still looking at either the 27th or 28th Sep as possible dates. Matty said either is fine so lets see names in a list and availability. Matty - either day mattB - either day

I should be ok for both days. The 27th would be my preference,so I can get a wee rest on the Sunday before going back to work . Is this going to be the same as last time ( £30 with 2 runs ) ? Baz

Looks like we'll go for the 27th then. Same deal as last time, 2 power runs for £30. The day will kick off about 10am but you can turn up from 9 if you want as I'm sure me and Matty will both be there from that time.

I`ll mention this meet to Noel when I see him on Thursday as I don`t think he gets the chance to check the forum often. I`ve got a funny feeling that he won`t be able to make a Saturday though ,but maybe it`ll be enough notice for him to get someone cover for him or something as he was really looking forward to this.

I'm sure there'll be another opportunity in the not too distant future. When you going to Knockhill? Are you taking the coupe?

Have you guys from the South sorted out a convoy? I'm just conscious that with the DNS problems people might not have been able to access the forum - might be worth someone doing a quick phone round tonight?

Turn up for 10 will be ideal - although you could try a little bit earlier if you wanted.

Yeah that'll be plenty time. By the way, if anyone is familiar with the camera locations; there's one that's been covered up for years with 'Not in Use' on the cover. It's about 25 miles south of Aberdeen. It's in action again.

Please Sparky..for the benefit of all of us, NO RACING PLEASE on public roads But it`s Sparky`s duty to set off all the speed cameras and draw the polis away whenever he`s in a convoy with us . Baz

Nice to see everyone today and glad that there were no casualties. I do, however, feel that there was definately potential for more boost.... I got 280 bhp and 260 lbft of torque, roughly which is about what I'd thought. Running a bit rich and idle is still all over the place so it'll be interesting to see what a remap will achieve.

Well on the road home I was pushing the car a wee bit more now that I know the fuelling was ok and I think I can feel the slightly increased torque and the car definitely seems quicker but I don`t know if that`s just down to the increased boost compared to before . TBH I was slightly disappointed that I never got the bhp hike I thought I would get with fitting the Gtec1 chip,especially when Sparky`s Coop has pretty much same level of mods but there was around 30bhp of a difference . I guess i`ll see what I get with the chargecooler and GM EBV fitted and if that doesn`t satisfy then i`ll probably head down the well-trodden path of FMIC+better turbo (I can`t believe I just said that ) .

Anyone that's knows Baz will not ever ever believe this is his quote..NO Baz head down the well-trodden path of FMIC+better turbo At one point I asked MattB what he wanted at McD and his reply was "more boost meal please, extra large" . Well it was sad to watch our poor Mattys so called beast top out at a measly 195bhp( give or take 200) The Kelvster just embarrassed everyone with his super clean coupe.......again Hubbys car went on and which point I lost conscious due to the old smoke inhalation trick..still feel dizzy Mike turned up just to pose in his immaculate coupe and watch our despair All in all another good day in coupe land.Would like to thank our host Matty and his advisor MattB(your fuel is OK, more boost then!) and to Hubby and Mike as for the other two, you can feck off

Thanks Matty for running the RR again for us too . .. as for the other two, you can feck off Now thats not a very nice thing to say Sparky. Matty..can you do me a favour. I'll give you £50 if you could smash the windscreen on Ronnie's 'mudflapatyflapflap' coop, scratch the paint of every panel of bodywork down to the metal, and stab all four tyres like a mad man, to your hearts content Paypal payment sent Lol .

I'm glad it didn't put you off coop ownership Baz Nah it`ll take more than that,I`m a Coopster for life (or lottery ) all i`m wanting is a nice 250bhp not wanting anymore really as I don`t have a readily available supply of higher RON fuel where I live . Did you see that yellow Calibra on the road back home near the FRB? I just about pi$$ed myself laughing at the 3 tailpipe exhaust . Baz
