Morspeed's new addition!!!!!!!!
Turbo Mini Forums

Hi all,

Just to let you know morspeed has purchased a rolling road and is having it fitted mid febuary.

This will help us set-up & bed in the new engines which we fit, And make sure they produce the power intended.

The decsision to have a rolling road instead of a dyno is so we can see how much power is being lost through tires/brakes/ drive train and general customer build of the car itself. in the end its the power transfered to the road that matters.

Ask yourself? why do most championship winning minis use morspeed?

What make of RR is it your fitting ?

Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I'm not sure about the the universe.

Its a 250bhp Clayton, With a SUN emissions tester.
This means we can check the fuelling right through the rev range.

only 250bhp.....
What are you going to do when my car comes??

...........................I chuffing wish lol

Sounds tops.
Is it up to date as the old claytons only had the dials for readout and came with no logging or graphing facilities.
You just can't beat getting the results down on paper.

rolling road day coming up soon for us all
what about sorting it out march time ... what does every one think?
what you reckon morespeed ... ?

isn`t there an upgrade for them??

Everyone knows that instructions only have to be read if the thing doesn't work....

It has the dials at the moment, but im looking into the data graph up-grade at the moment.

What better way to play, with turbo minis!!!!!!!
Sounds like a plan eh?

Now that sounds like a great idea.

I can vouch for this company as i've been using their dynos for around 10 years now.. not cheap but worth the money for the flexability of their software.

Simon,

PM sent...

ps - ask for the full dyno documentation from Land-and-Sea - It's awesome - lots of good articles included aswell. They're well respected over this side of the pond (if that means anything)

Where abouts in Leicestershire are Morspeed based?

I spoke to Simon via Pm, and he said once he's set up, he'd be happy to let us organise a rolling road day there.

So, we'll start a new thread in a few days, and get some interest together for a summer bash?
