In tune with high-performance needs

EVERYONE is aware of the quality and precision of an Aston Martin engine, but few might be aware that much of the fine tuning of those engines happens in the heart of a Northamptonshire business park.

Langford Performance Engineering (LPE) was established in 1980 to provide companies, teams and individuals with a facility for research and development and building and testing services for all types of high performance engines.

The company built a reputation for quality and reliability and is renowned for its commitment to quality and customer service, backed up by an enthusiasm and passion for all things automotive.

The firm works across the region and in Europe and America to ensure companies and individuals maximise their engine’s performance, working with Aston Martin engines as well as Cosworth, Jaguar and Historic F1 to name but a few.

A move from its original site in Moulton Park to premises on the Finedon Road Industrial Estate in Wellingborough enabled the firm to install the dynamometers needed to cope with the high-performance engines it needed to test.

Director Dick Langford said: “We are one of the smaller firms across the area with two dynamometers; one capable of running to 20,000 rpm and able to handle 1,000 bhp, with a further dyno handling up to 14,000 rpm and 800 bhp. Installing these dynos was necessary to carry on with the quality, service and reputation for which we are known within the industry.

“Our facilities enable us to research and develop new ideas for updating and improving engine performance and to help customers achieve success and stay in front. We are known for our high standards and all engines are meticulously built and tested by a highly skilled and experienced workforce in excellent modern facilities.”

LPE has the machinery, testing equipment, data logging, years of experience, specialist knowledge and attention to detail, that ensures customers have the utmost confidence in our services.

The company also provides trackside support at events together with comprehensive monitoring, collation of information and full reporting if required.
