Find a local RR place with a MODERN dyno, not an old inertia one.
Dyno Dynamics or DynoJet dynos are about the most accurate as the final power figure CANNOT be adjusted or fiddled by the operator.
where in yorkshire are you?

Only the ones where the owner is happy with how much bhp their car makes!
