Only know of them word of mouth from folk who know a lot about Japanese tuned wagons.

They have a name for spouting a lot of pish about their "1000bhp" skylines and stuff.

This could of course be a lot of heresay.

But if you want to just go and get them to RR your car then there isnt much they could do wrong is there?

I'd get Stu to check them out... When he's got a spare 5 seconds!

Thing to point out - an RR is as good as the operator. "at the wheels" figures don't mean much - are heavily effected by gearing, tyres and even tyre pressures. You need one that can measure a run with a coastdown (to take rolling losses into account) - don't listen to any pish about a 'formula' to calculate the flywheel figure - that's just rubbish.

I'm booked into Falkland tomorrow at 10 for a power run. It's a MAHA CP3 300 dyno they've got. Dunno how that compares to Dastek. Tried to get into Dastek for weeks, but a big company has booked the Dyno for weeks, plus they have their own work to try and get on it, so it's a no go.

Should be interesting especially as the exhaust manifold has started blowing a wee bit (here come the excuses)
