With the many problems with my car and fuelling, and many many trips to different rolling road so called specialists. I finally found someone with the knowlegde and knew exactly what they were doing!

So my thanks go to Rob at Perfect Touch

They have a 4wd dyno cell, with a fan capable of 120mph headwind! And also proper extraction fans!!

This fan would probably blow you over if you stood in front of it!



Also check the grip on these rollers



Heres a pic of my highest BHP



Another advantage at these rollers, is the wideband lambda monitoring and also Det Cans



Picture of my car in action



Picture of the speedo



The mr2 i mean 355 that was on the rollers after me



Another one of the mr2



Heres one of my BHP graphs plotted against the Ferrari.

Mine being the one in the red and the Ferrari being blue.

Also note that the operator let off at 5500RPM



Heres the Torque graph as well,

My car being the red again, and letting off at 5500RPM



You can see why i dont have any trouble with them on the road 8)
