Weston Performance

I just wanted to say, that if we have any chance of being at EDC this weekend, a large proportion of that chance is down to the guys at Weston Performance .

They will not be competing at this round themselves unfortunately, but they have gone above and beyond the call of duty to help get our 1JZR32 there.. Paul has fitted us in at very short notice around a very busy week, and Greg has worked till the early ours of the morning not only on our R32, but also Bons Chaser. The man deserves a medal ..

The R32 is on the dyno right now, after a long couple of nights at the DW workshops trying to get it to run.... This is our last chance after the run of bad luck we've had with the S15 build.. Fingers crossed..


Thank you guys

Nice one. Top lads at Weston, and the boy Greg is a bit of a wiz on the dyno

Good luck.

More than that, just been on the phone checking a few settings with James, and it seems that they're going to go back on the rollers in a bit.
I've been on the phone with them since 10 this morning, thats some damn long hours Weston have done.

Nah, it's a small turbo and no cams...

430bhp and 440ft/lb torques so far at 1.35. I think we'll cap it at 1.5bar
