Hey don't laugh at a Rolla Chris, i brought one to one of the cruise before & it kept up with all of ya hehehe
But from the photo, the rolla looks like got an aftermarket extractor. So i assume its got a bit of work done to it. But even a stock one (Sportival) will give a FTO a good run for the money.

nothing too sophisticated really, only the CAI and the extractors to the cat, ohh and weekly meet and veggy shopping in the boot from the Preston market.
My concern was that I need to put the new suspension in asap, current one is realy old and spungy, not delivering the power fully I believe. I have to fix this asap, shockers are in my garage waiting to go in,
And will be getting the cat back and FPR in late September.
Then back to the same dyno I guess.
I will scan the graph tomorrow and post it here, I need you guys view on it.
PS: I did mention few times to run the car in 3rd gear, but it says 4th on the graph, not sure though, they might have used 3rd
Thanks to flameboy, it was a good introduction for me to the dyno, he broke my cherry.

All i can say regarding to cost is that;
- The car has fully resprayed dual pac, except the engine bay. No masking, every single part/panel has taken out, back to shell pretty much
- All the removable interior has been resprayed proffessionally to the same colour as the car, dual pac
- New front bumper, clear side indicators
- Headlights and foglights internally sprayed
- Boot key hole, aerial hole, all the stitckers, FTO embossed logo at the back bumper, window rain shield, etc.. all removed
- There are few other things done which I cant remember
The final bill was huge, very close to turboing the car!!!
And yes, headlights are really hard to do, taking them off is a real pain, putting them back on even harder.

You've got every right to be paranoid though. Let us know and we'll keep a lookout for that Lancer driver for you.

hi max...
no worries mate... anytime... anyway... i called protek today and they said, they put it in the 3rd.... and he forgot to put 3rd instead of forth on the graph detail.... coz even my mate's mps... dynoed with 5th... still said 4th on the graph... so i suspect they put 4th on the graph for all the cars...
