I'm an idiot. What is it and what would I do there?
I assume rolling road would mean I drive nowhere and get some figures for something and remap is tech talk for performance stuff that I don't have yet?

Rolling road;



Gives you, BHP and Torque figures in a curve graph, the max point been your max BHP at that RPM and likewise for torque. like this....

(same car as above Fiat Seicento 1.1 )

Your engine ECU is set by a specific MAP to maximize its power, torque or fuel effieceny (depending on manufacturer or setup)

If you have a petrol or diesel TURBO likelihood is this can be "Remapped" to give more power or torque or better MPG, or in diesels all of these.

Remapping is useless in non turbo petrols.. (unless modified) But the BHP figures are always interesting, especially in modded cars.

That is f******* brilliant, I could have read for hours and not got such a good description, top man

thats not strictly true, it depends what you are looking for, if its massive power gains then you wont get them, but that isn't always the reason for a remap.



This rolling road day will be on a high spec roller with built in weather station, so results cant be tricked by putting temp probe on wrong place

 

[dave]

BUMP anyone up for it?

 

[Doofer]

Sounds good, but I'm too skint and boring.

 

[jip0]

I would go just for a rolling road and watch everyone else's remaps and stuff but i will be back at uni by the time it happens

 

[jamesm2603]

Possibly interested. Any word on discounts and such for a number of cars turning up? And what day you looking at roughly?

 

[dave]

oggy was supposed to ring me, but he hasnt, i didn't chase him as seemed not much interest. i reckon it be last weekend of the month though, we get a good price, not sure if its gone up though. if more are interested then, i'll get some more info
