I’ve never used them but they appear quite often on Carthrottle and Carwow videos.

They're well regarded locally by lots of groups, Charlie (the owner) is also a PH'er (can't remember his username though)

I'm booked in next Saturday - not been before but read good reviews everywhere.

It's £40 for a run, which seems pretty reasonable to me?

It's an independant dyno that has ran thousands of cars.
Figures are harsh, accurate and no nonsense.

Took my Celica in there a couple of years ago, Charlie was really patient with me, explained what I wanted to know, didnt laugh in my face when I couldnt bear to watch my beloved car revved right up on the rollers laugh overall easy and good experience and great guys running it. Enjoy.

I’ve used them twice. Once when my WRX was remapped and the other on my 996 when I had a new s/s exhaust system fitted. They know their stuff and I can happily recommend them.

I've got an m135i that i had remapped at DMS 3 years ago. On the DMS dyno it was 320 standard and 376 mapped, so I'm interested to see if i get a consistent figure with SRR. Also that was on 95 fuel and i hear that feeding the strong stuff makes a big difference on mapped engines, so just intrigued to see if those figures go up a bit now! Prob not, but who knows!

Alas the car actually has a small oil leak that needs looking at first (with the mechanics next week), so trying to find a different day. If i still need to pay for Saturday I'll bring down my 981 Cayman GTS instead

Cheers
