Rolling road for MFI setup

Post by veryporky »

Can anybody recommend a rolling road with a technician who is familiar with MFI. Not too fussy about location. Just need someone who knows what they are doing when it comes to MFI.

Many thanks :)

Dave Sunderland @ Strasse knows his MFI. I think he has just set up Mick Cliffs car. No rolling road used though

Dave Sunderland at Strasse in Leeds is THE man.
He's the guy that used to build and maintain Jack Tordoff's Carrera's (JCT 600) in the late 60's and early 70's.
He set up the MFI on my car last year and, in about 4 hours, changed it from one that ran like sh*t to a very useful machine. I haven't had to touch the MFI since that day...

Thanks. Frankly Dave sounds like a bit of a chap but my car would perhaps still need to be set up on a rolling road to optimise the timing as it is bumped to about 9.5:1 comp from 8.5:1 and may differ from the bone stock setting.

Down south is Bob Watson Engineering in Oxfordshire, he is a Porsche specialist with the rolling road that Neil Bainbridge and Autofarm use. The 935 at Le Mans Classic was dyno'd there, as was my 2.7 mfi.
