    My scoob is silent B) was I had the cash to do something about it :P

    I guess I could just remove the rear silencer and center section lol B)

    What and leave them off? Would certainly be noisy then :lol:

    Rubes is by no means loud but we've just had the centre pipe changed which has done away with the resonator and that's certainly made a difference, only cost about £90. Next stop is doing away with the Prodrive backbox and getting a Tornado one from Scoobyparts :lol:

    what would be best for me, ill be coming from cambridge way?

    You have two options really, if you'd like to convoy with us we'll be using the A421 into Bedford from the Black Cat roundabout on the A1, there's a lay by about half a mile (ish) along the A421, we could meet you there at around 7.15 a.m or your most direct route would be along the A14.

    Cheers

    Ok guys,

    Rather than reply to each question individually I'm now going to attempt to answer them all in one go (so if I miss anything please shout):

    Mud Flaps

    Not an issue - if need be the front ones can be moved out of the way of the rollers.

    Times

    Paul would like to start at 9.30 a.m so if we can start getting there from 9 a.m onwards this will be perfect. Unless you want a specific time it will be on a first come, first served basis. He is also going to draw up an imdemnity form to be signed as well.

    Data Printouts

    Power and torque at wheels and flywheel readouts and then a boost and air/fuel mix readout.

    Advice On The Day

    Info will be available from the printouts and then Paul can take a separate discussion about particulars and advise.

    Payments

    No deposit required, pay on the day. Cash is preferable but 'debit' card is ok. 'Credit' cards will have a 2% surcharge added.

    Think that just about covers it all.

    Cheers,

    Rach

    Wow Goblin!

    I also had a '82 Ford Escort - it was supposed to be red, but had got dull with age and some nice person put glue all over the roof!

    Got the motor in 1991 - 4 speed box - 4 door - cost me 900 notes - did 105 mph lol!

    Sold it in 1993 for 500 notes :P:brickwall:

    Then went onto a 309 Sri :brickwall::censored:

    Ah Matty, my little girl was gorgeous, I'll see if I can find some pics of her later and post them up (as long as there's some without me in them with my dodgy 1980's perm lol).

    Mine was a 1982 X reg Ford Escort 1.3L in Sunburst Red (how sad I still remember the name) :brickwall:

    Cost me £1500

    I bought it because it was a 3 door and at 18 looks were everything (what am i on about I'm now 39 and they still are).

    I sold it to the scrap man after I blew up 2 engines in 3 years - and yes guys I DID put oil in it!

    Oh yes and as with all my cars she did have a name - this one was called "Rebel" :P

    About 11-12pm as I'm coming from Essex.

    Will the guys from Zen be able to tweek or solve any issues while I'm there? I'm not sure if i'm a little under on boost or not as i'm not sure if my gauge is reading correct!

    I had it on dyno at Torque dev in Essex and they said it was 0.9 but my gauge shows 0.75!

    Hiya,

    11-12 should be fine, I'll be sorting out times on the rollers over the weekend/early part of next week so I'll get you on around midday if you want.

    Paul is now a "one man band" so to speak so i can't say for definate whether he'll be able to help you out on the day but I need to speak to him over the next couple of days so I'll let you know.

    Hope this helps,

    Rach
