Greig at mini vlassic in Ermington has a dyno, knows what he's doing with minis too.

Get Greig at Mini Classic to do it. You will wonder why you ever drove it without having it tuned!

Miniclassic is in here- http://www.ausmini.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=10543

Note GR has an engine dyno, not a set of rollers. :wink:

Mini Classic workshop in ermington is just west of west ryde. Should take you about 1/2 an hour to get there from hornsby. a little more from turramurra.

I have seen many of the results of Greigs work and I can assure you he knows exactly what he is doing. Also he and Graham Russell work on many things together, so Greig has the benefits of that relationship as well. He does every mini from the highly strung 150hp historic racers to 21hp 850s, but he does them right.
