Sounds like a decent setup, seems a friendly sort too, and with the amount of cars getting done he should be on to a winner.

So its just a waiting game now for the dates to come through.....at least it seems like a definite go ahead then????

Hi all

here the promised write-up on TDP and my meeting with Robie.

They are verry eager to do the group remap for us. I had the list of cars with me to check if he foresees any issues we should be aware of. He cant do Bens Volvo as volvos ecu's need a full day to do.

All other cars are ok. He pionted out that all pre 98 cars need their ecu's removed to get them done hence they will need 2 or 3 hours all post 98 ones get programmed trough the OBDII port and take 1hour.

We did not speak about individual gains as that partlym depends on the state of the engine as well as anything else. But he reckons that every 2litre of engine volume give a 10 to 15BHP gain on petrol engines and smoth out torque.

The cars oil should be in good condition and the clutch has to be SLIPFREE in 4th or 5th gear past 4000RPM.

He also showed me the B&B he was talking to Ben about wich is just around the corner fdrom him.

Timing wise he reckons that it will be somewhere between the earmarked weekend and the first two weekends in March as latest dates he is still waiting on two race dates for final confirmation of our dates.

I saw a Nissan Skyline being rollered while I was there. And the Dyno is an absolut peach. As the wheels get taken off and the car gets mounted directly onto it there is no slippage or movement of the vehicle while in it. The place is huge and will fit all cars inside his garage. Also it was packed with racepreped and masivly tuned Jap machinery he promised he clears that out till than.

I had a verry good feeling about the company and I for myself rather wait a wwekend or two to get it done there as they seems to be specialised on that sort of thing. (performance tuning)

I had typed out a big reply and lost it. bloody computers,

Youve hit the nail on the head paddy, robbie said he had a lot of commitments with motorsport alright,

Chris that would be great if you could call into him, ive sent another mail now,

I understand guys i would much rather have the rolling road too and its probably only worth while with this.

If he wants to wait a week or so to have it would that be ok with everyone? Id rather feb to keep it as is to avoid disruption.

I think i added in another thread there my moby is 087 2337835 and i can be got on that anytime if anyone needs me, (mods please leave in)

And thansk for all the feedback lads

Cheers

Ben

Sorry Ben, I didn't mean to bypass you either. Hopefully we'll get a result, but i'm thinking it would take an hour or two to do a proper live mapping as numerous runs before and after would have to be done to get the best result and I cant see anyone doing that for 350 squids. Surely it's not possible to do 10 cars or more in the one day and not if this guy is as busy as he sounds.

That was pretty much my line of thinkin. My German heritage always clashes with that aproach here as we always plan....and plan and replan german habbit

Remember Ben saying that /TDP is doing a lot of race/ralley prep for the forthcoming season.

Ben what's you position on this dont want to step on your toes
