Try another run with the tops of the filters removed just to rule that one in/out as well.

Can do at Shelsley, not much grit in the air.

Ha!
We did actually do a filter less run, but also changed the advance and lost 5 bhp, went back to the previous advance but added the filters back in, so 2 changes at a time...
It is not all about bhp, but more bhp with more torque is a nice improvement. We were running out of RR time, another guy had turned up for his session, so it all had to end somewhere soon.
With that TVR around in 2 weeks time, a few more bhp would be useful.
I hope fresh tyres will help.
