Whilst on the dyno
« on: July 29, 2014, 09:29:24 pm »
Whilst your car is on the dyno what results/faults can be determined other than the obvious bhp and torque?

Misfires would show up, the AFR graph would show any fuelling issues, the curve would show boost problems (sticky actuators etc) clutch slip would show up, probably more. . .

Logging with VCDS on the Dyno will show up everything  :grin: -but that wasn't your question

If you have an easily accessible boost tap then boost can be recorded whilst the car is on the dyno but it depends on if that facility is available.
Without traction power is nothing!
