Car Forum / MINI / March 2004rolling roads
Can any one recomend somewhere in the bedfordshire / hertfordshire area with a rolling road and the ability to get the best out of my spi Cooper. > Can any one recomend somewhere in the bedfordshire / hertfordshire > area with a rolling road and the ability to get the best out of my spi > Cooper. I am looking for one in the Merseyside area, actually. Would there be anything in particular worth looking for in the Yellow pages? I.e are garages with dynos marked differently? Or is there anything like a national registry?

The A series 'guru' is not too far from you .... Peter Baldwin on 01223 207217 (Wilsher Garage at Wimpole, near Royston). Highly recommended.  SignatureRgds Steve steve@dsnclassics.co.uk www.dsnclassics.co.uk I rang Peter and he said that there is no point booking in an injection cooper as there is nothing that can be done to optimise its performance. Is this true? > > Can any one recomend somewhere in the bedfordshire / hertfordshire > > area with a rolling road and the ability to get the best out of my spi > > Cooper. > > The A series 'guru' is not too far from you ....

It is certainly true that rolling roads have a lot better impact on carburettor minis. If there is "no point", I wouldn't be able to answer. > > I rang Peter and he said that there is no point booking in an injection > > cooper as there is nothing that can be done to optimise its performance.

I can't say I'm an expert on the injection cars. I guess the ECU is controlling all the fuelling. You can modify the car mildly and the ECU will correct the fuel/air mixture accordingly. But I understand much beyond an air filter and exhaust swap is too much for the ECU to cope with. You are then into tweaking the electronics I believe.
