Finally!!! I have found a local Dyno workshop. They were at the Singleton Street Machine Car Show today and I grabbed a couple of brochures.
I will be booking the Lane in to sort out my LPG tune and do a couple of runs on both petrol and gas to finally get a guage on the power loss on LPG. I will let you all know how it goes before I go giving them any free advertising If they do a good job, they also do Dyno Days for clubs so I will get a bit more info and get one of the cruise mods to get a Dyno Day happening for Newie. I will post up one of the flyers once I am happy with the service provided. Stay tuned for the lanes dyno figures!!! (Finally )

Finally got myself motivated today and got outside and did some work on the lane. Bought a set of rear SL's from svomatt a couple of weeks ago (were suppose to be for the missus' EB ), so I thought I would throw them in the lane just to see how they look and hopefully, still clear the driveway
Before I got started Lows V's Super Lows Ready for a test run Pretty happy with the result, the front right side hotdog scrapes a bit when I reverse down the driveway.....but I can live with that I also threw this in whilst I was out tinkering She's breathing pretty good now....has a deep throaty induction growl to match the lumpy exhaust note.........getting there The old one is crap.....very restrictive

LOL, I remember following you on that run to Newy Mick, and the Lane was rolling all over the place.
I bet it handles 10 times better now. Looks really good mate. BenJ

With all that water running across the road on the bends, it's a friggin miracle I managed to hold it and not spin off into the bush But yes, handling much, much better now!

Have to agree with you there....plus I was pushing my luck going supers with the rear. Fronts are already supers anyway, would have to go ultra's now.....but that's not gunna happen. It has a nice balanced stance now, will be happy for now

Will let ya know tommorow matey! hahahahhaha.....you funny!
Nah! I was planning on throwing the old stockies on now it's dumped just to see how she looks. But I think the mags are 235/45's on 17's and the stocks are 225/60's on 15's. I'll put up a pic later with the stockies on as a comparison....k!
