Thats interesting. Most of them members are yanks right??
How are the yank dyno's compared to DynoDynamics? Sounds to me like they are dreaming with the figures they are claiming!

yeah, ignorance is a disease...
i try to fight it, but the dark side is strong...
BTW - to prevent self-infection, avoid sites like ClubCivic.com
yeh....i didnt find any threads that interested me there....except that one....but even then, it was for negative reasons...
well, yes and the difference between US dyno's and AUS dyno's was explained to the poster in this thread http://forums.clubrsx.com/showthread.php?t=133123 on ClubRSX but it appears that he/she continued to post on ClubCivic without advising them of this fact...Quote:

yes, but was that the whole story?
ignorance through omission is still the same evil...
^^^ true dat
what dyno dave said is about right.
I read an article a few years back explaining why there was a 12-15% difference in power output between a car placed on american dyno and australian dyno.
If you multiply your aussie dyno output by 1.12% to 1.15% you will see that your car does infact come out very close to the american dyno figures.
do you remember the reason?
i always thought that the dyno's were different and had different compensation/correction factors...?
It was to do with how the americans setup the drive train loss on their dynos... i am very vague at the moment i am trying to hunt down the article...
i got 89.4 at [cabin] AutoSalon Dyno Shootout.
B16A u know the rest.
not bad considering the car hadnt been driven for over a month and it was run in humid warm atmosphere inside the burswood dome.
p.s. i won the trophy too :P
lol there were no other honda fanatics there competing for the award???
