Just 'another' Rolling Road...391.8 bhp

Post by mac4RS » Thu Aug 20, 2009 7:16 pm

It's been a few weeks since I had my car 'fixed' by Audi Camberley.

The 'sparkle' is definitely back (mind you was it ever there?).

Back I went to Clive Atthowe's RR @ Norwich to confirm the car was back on song.

Had 4 runs, which were all consistent, with the highest being 391.8. :jump:

Could have produced slightly more power as the runs were done fairly hot.

So, even with irregular coked up valves etc I'm nearly there... :wink:

Excellent new Mac and near the 396 mine made on a Dastek road so fairly consistent. Glad you are happy with the car now.

Excellent news Mac.

I'm interested at what compensation Audi will be offering you after all your trials and tribulations....
