Nicki Posted October 25, 2004 Report Share Posted October 25, 2004 Went to the Junction29 & Corrado Club rolling road day yesterday & put my girl on the rollers... (remember, she's completely factory standard!)130.8 bhp @ 6395 rpm at the fly & 118.6 lbft @ 3421 rpm style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" /> Who else has put theirs on a Rolling Road? What did you get? What mods have you done? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nicki Posted October 25, 2004 Author Report Share Posted October 25, 2004 QUOTE(LINCOLNSHIRESLUPOGTI)Went a few months ago but cant get on rollers due to ride height.Funny you should say that, one of the corrado guys took his front bumper off to fit his car on the rollers, Damo (one of the J29 guys) raised his coilovers 15mm to get his mk2 golf to fit & Paul (another J29er) was removing everything he could from underneath his mk4 golf gti to make it fit!Dedication or madness? :?

starbank Posted October 29, 2004 Report Share Posted October 29, 2004 137 BHP on a standard `set-up`! I think I'll get mine done soon - Star Performance in Glenrothes where I got my wheels done has all the equipment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicki Posted October 29, 2004 Author Report Share Posted October 29, 2004 Yeah, the ABS light comes on because only the front wheels are moving so it confuses the sensors... got my nice friend who works for VW to clear the error messages off for me though! style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=";)" border="0" alt="wink.gif" /> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zippy Posted October 29, 2004 Report Share Posted October 29, 2004 All I had to do for the ABS is drive round the car park a couple of times, working the brakes.The lights went off within a minute.Oh, 131 bhp as standard, me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicki Posted October 29, 2004 Author Report Share Posted October 29, 2004 Yeah the light went off more or less as soon as I started the drive to the pub from the RR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zippy Posted October 30, 2004 Report Share Posted October 30, 2004 Its more specified tuning places that have rolling roads mate. Most places who do software/ecu upgrades will have them, should be like £`40-60` I guess (for a rolling road session).Does anyone know which are the rolling roads to avoid? There are apparently some that have large inaccuracies. Been told the Dastek setup is one of the most accurate, but maybe it has something to do with being more accurate for `4-WD` measurement? (I guess `4-WD` might be less accurate as it must go through more calculations & conversion tables to get power figure from rollers to graph?)Or am I just thinking through it all the wrong way, & talking pap?
