Where's the nearest 4x4 rolling road to Durham\Newcastle? - is R&P Woods 4x4?

I always used to pop down to Well Lane Turbo Centre nr. Leeds. A bit of a hike, but they have a good reputation for reliable figures.

I'm sure Andiroo will be able to offer his advice.

we had a day at Well Lane the other month - only problem with the place was that the size of the fan was insufficient - retuned cars suffered a bit from heatsoak thus the ECU pulled back - ask Phil-T who recorded inlet temps of circa 80 C on his car..
M3 CSL - Silver Grey, a few options.

aarrgghh turbo pacs [img]images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] I don't think they have 4wd rollers, besides I did once visit them with the Q4 for a strange boost problem, they diagnosed a knackered trubo & a new intercooler end cap when it was infact a small bore vaccum control hose.. [img]images/graemlins/crazy.gif[/img] we we shall not be visiting again [img]images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Leeds doesn't sound too bad.. I know there's one at York (ex alfa place Allwyn Kershaws) & there's always Noble engineering at Sheffield but was hoping for something a little closer as it's just for fun with the guys at work.. "lardy estate"!!!

I agree mate. they fitted a atmos dump valve to me mates A3t and knackered the turbo.
Bass.
But it was not their fault of course.
