SW Autos. A Great Day Out!

STE-MAL · Oct 15th, 2006, 21:58

Four R's travelled from Ipswich to SW Autos in Kent for a dyno run on the 14th of October 2006.
Two V70 R's And two 850 R's attended.
One V70 was manual, one was auto, and one 850 was manual and one was auto.
I am not going to post a story for each car, I will leave the stories for the other R owners to post.
Anyway hear are my results.
I had a great day (the most important thing of course), anyway, my car, (the V70 R manual) made 257.3 BHP @ 5312 rpm and 332.1 lbft @ 3732 rpm.

I was well pleased. Here are some pictures.

cool to see my R on here again and my Bro`s too.

the red one is our mechanics 850 R which he took and i must say he owns a very good garage giving an old school service to all it`s punters , that is why all of my family use him as well as lots of my friends.
his name is Alan and even he was impressed with the way we were all treated during our visit and the setup at SW Autos , that must be praise coming from someone who owns his own good garage.

even more alan and my brother both gained from the session with a little tlc to their cars form the mechanics.

i`m chuffed to bits with my dyno session too ( can`t access smiles so i can`t fill 2 lines of grins )

thanks to Stuart and Bobcat , aswell as all the staff who helped out and joined in the fun.

Mine is the green 855R auto,here are my figures for a standard car BHP 248.9 @ 5510 and 273.5lbft @ 2860 well pleased with these figures for a 10yr old standard car.
It was a great day with three other enthusiast, one who runs his own garage, we all left after beer/food all very happy with our figures.
It was good to spend time with the team at SW Autos, who are so enthusiastic about cars, and are keen to do a fantastic job, what ever the size.
