Dr Dons Technical Day

On Saturday, the club had a technical day at Wintec Hamilton. Along with general maintenance, we also got to put a large number of cars on the dyno, which was very interesting to see the difference between every car. I haven't got a list of other vehicles ratings, but hopefully others that ran their cars and read this can add theirs figures.
My 2005 NC recorded 128kw at the flywheel (111kw at wheels) and 222Nm torque at the flywheel

. Although very happy with those figures, I am contemplating making up my own cold air intake which seems fairly easy to do after reading the U.S Miata forum.

With winter coming up i dont think Trish would like it if you removed one of your spouting downpipes to make a cold air intake!

Ok Nige. I guess I can do that. I will have to find someone that took Photos.

Glen, our downpipe is the wrong shape, watch out for yours next time i'm in your area
