Check all levels coolant and oil are vital as they will be working at there hardest on a rr. Also check your tyre pressures are up to their correct pressures. if you want to make a slightly inflated power figure pump the tyres up to about 50psi - less drag on the rollers :->
172, and my point is, what is the point in spending anything ranging from 400-600(???) for a couple of BHP if that? spending money on tuning a NA car for the road is daft, a turbo car on the other hand makes more sense. I know you'll prob all argue this point but think about how much you spend...
