[FAD2BLK]

I trust everybody realizes how inexact these dynos are, particularly when using different dynos. If you took exactly the same car around to different dynos, any results within 5 horsepower would be strictly luck, and a difference of 10 or more would not be surprising.

To give just one example, if the dyno room does not have fantastic ventilation, the temperature increase in running will mess things up quite a bit. Warmer trans and rear end oil can make a 5 hp difference. Just putting a fan in front of the car won't do the job.

Also, how the operator runs the dyno can change things a lot. In a big city, with competition, the temptation is for the operator to fudge things to give a big number, since these are mostly used for bragging rights, and he'll get more business that way.

Basically the best use of a dyno is to do tuning on the spot, so the dyno accuracy is not important, only its consistancy.

Google "dyno accuracy" for more stuff about this.

With your mods, that's pretty decent actually.

[FAD2BLK]

You think? Even with the new catback and headers? Not sure if you'd seen that I added those on the other board or not.
