To put it bluntly, there better be 3 runs and a print-out or I won't be parting with any money.

I'm not sure if that's the attitude Robin - Is the weather getting you down :wink:

There will be up to five runs with a printout(usually in a nice folder as well)

@Oli

Can you also confirm the data that would be available to takeaway and what is printed?

In my previous post you confirmed the data should be possible

Can you also confirm the data that would be available to takeaway and what is printed?

In my previous post you confirmed the data should be possible, I would like confirmation that raw data at each sample point would be available to takeaway or email.

This would include...

WHP
Flywheel power
Wheel torque
Flywheel torque
AFR
Boost

If also possible, can you ask them to provide a sample with what they can supply for the above?

TVM.

Yes this is all possible, speak to Charlie on the day, or give him a call directly if you are after something specialised

....I'm told that Maha dynos measure power at the crank, while Dyno-Dynamics measure power at the wheels.
Hence the big difference.

Robin they all measure them at the wheels and use witchcraft to generate a crank figure.   :wink:

you can not accurately measure flywheel power with the engine still in the car!

it needs to come out and done on a test bench / engine dyno to get a proper engine power figure.

something like this (its from Norris Designs)



as Hedge says...they do some strange witchcraft / creative accounting thing to give u a number that u can then argue over at the local.

they dyno dynamics near me can give you both the whp and flywheel hp if youwant, its just that they normally only show the flywheel HP.

@cuprak1

i always get nervous before a dyno run in case it comes out really under powered. and highlights a problem. can get good figures on the dyno dynamics you know you.

another way of looking at it, though, is if you vu have a good car. thats why i like them i think

I wish i was coming down to this, but alas its to far.  :sad1:

I would just like to make the point of thanking Oli for organizing this day, it takes a lot of time and effort to get it to where he has with this many people involved.

Well done that man.

Does this mean you will be updating your sig pic( 360 BHP ) now, with a more accurate reflection after the weekend.

 :wink:
