Little_Dave:
Well finally got hold of some proper car cleaning equipment after a few visits to @DANBOY66





So much easier and quicker, not to mention safer on the paintwork

Here's how my car looked after a good covering



And that was after 5 minutes of dwelling, haven't got any final results pics as I was running out of daylight  :sad1:

Current cleaning method is

Rinse car
Snow foam
Agitate with valet pro brush around sills etc
Bilberry my wheels and agitate with wheel woollies
Rinse car
Two bucket method using chemical guys wash n gloss shampoo
Rinse car
Dry car off

Ran out of time and the car was only waxed not long ago so just topped up with some sonax bsd, poor boys on the wheels, Meg's endurance the tires and some Meg's glass cleaner  :smiley:

Comments or advice welcome

DANBOY66:
Bang on mate  :happy2:

you are getting the bug  :grin: :grin:

and you know it makes sense to look after a nice car properly  :drool:

and in the better weather months we will machine polish the car to make it look even better  :happy2:

Little_Dave:
Definitely got the bug and I blame you entirely  :signLOL:

Be interesting to get some figures on Monday of what power I'm getting finally  :jumpmove:

Machine polishing sounds great  :drinking: but will no doubt cost me more money if I get the hang of it  :notworthy:

Just hope the rollers are kind and don't ruin me  :fighting:

Little_Dave:
Well today was the moment of truth wondering what power my car was making once and for all  :driver:

Arrived at Surrey rolling road just before 1, after struggling to find it amongst all the buildings  :signLOL:

Was very happy with the results of the runs, pulled 348bhp on the first run and 353bhp on the second with 345ftlbs torque  :happy2:

I'll let justin reveal his figures himself but they were consistent with his previous dyno at rtech

Just a shame james didn't put his ttrs on for a run  :drool:

Dave

DANBOY66:
good figures mate  :happy2: when you get the Peron intercooler, Cts boost pipes and a map tweak its going to be even better
