Do we want an Evolve BBQ rolling road day

JLR1969 · 06-11-2010, 03:57 AM

I think its about time that the crew at Evolve organised another BBQ and rolling road day.

The last one was great fun as able to meet loads of members from the forum, see some cool cars and find out how much power your car produces.

Oh and lets not forget the tasty home made burgers.

Come on Evolve get it organised ............... please

Yes.. of course after the world cup.

sounds good, but after the world cup!!

Imran@Evolve · 06-11-2010, 05:09 AM

Oh it will be after the World Cup

We are thinking August. Just have to set a date.

Like last year we will have a BBQ, Dyno runs and special discount on remaps on the day.

RagingKileak · 06-11-2010, 06:57 AM

I'm in.

Tie it in with the Nurburgring Trip once announced and its a double win

I doubt it...but that map he did on a Corolla a few years back should do the trick

Sorry Steve...I'm not normally like this. I need my pills...couldn't help it

TRD Lexus IS-F -

Remapped Spec:
5.0 liter V8
Direct and port injection
446bhp and 386lb ft of torque.
Now 8500rpm red line

At the mo it revs to about 7000rpm

Palmnuts · 06-12-2010, 11:59 AM

I'm surprised you can get it off the drive with just 446bhp

As for the torque.....

no mate. im planning on a new one as my next car. Im thinking the electric blue colour with white leather. October 2011. The only reason i asked about a remap was to see if it was possible rather than out of needing more speed. It is a perfect car for me.

Oli · 06-13-2010, 05:50 AM

Good man, I'm pleased that you are loving it.

No need to worry about going on a dyno, you just watch as someone else drives it on rollers. Agenda would be arrive, chat with other car mad people, eat BBQ, look at nice cars (C63s excluded as now common) and see who's car produces what power output.

A great day out. No insurance needed as its only being driven on rollers.

Yes I remember touching 165mph in that M6 you had at the time. How many cars have you had in 12 months.

1) M6
2) Black C63
3) Laguna or similar
4) White C63

Money spent.................. don't ask too much!!!!

Hi Steve

It is not something we have done before. Its such a low production volume model TRD are probably the best company to go to.

PS - I love the ISF - I have only ever seen 1 on the road.
