:rolleyes:Yeah but it is more than just car to car differences - the ECU is also making adjustments.Quote:

Euro77 - correct me if I am wrong - but your base runs in 4th ranged from 103 to 109 - or thereabouts. No adjustments to anything.
That is a fairly big variance - so how do you know on any particular run whether there is a gain if just stock you can get such a range?
Anyway - we are getting a bit off topic here.
Do the dyno peeps think its weird having all the little euros on their machines after all the brutes in the clone after clone gen 3 flacodore? :)
Id like to dyno mine after I do all the mods.
would say, temperature differences and the skills of the dyno operator is crucial too..
in my car, a dyno done in hot summer afternoon (35C) shows about 10% drop in power, compared to a cool day (hi-20C).
i heard something about elevation, or the land / sea level plays a part in dyno numbers as well.
Taking a physics pov, at different altitudes, air pressure would be different, so amount of air going into the engine would also be slightly different. Not to mention boiling point and ignition temp would be different as well.Quote:
