Practice?! Practice what? Your car is driven up by Adrian and then he does the dyno run. I wouldn't trust even myself to drive the car up onto the dyno. You get 3 runs and he prints out the best one. I got 4 runs because I asked him to run to cutoff (no extra power made). Thing about dynos is that they are only a scientifically valid comparison to other cars who run on that same day. Run different days and you can get different results.Quote:

On the same day just before me ChrisF got approx 130kw (from memory) with I/H/E and is a manual.
Different dyno though. Your numbers can't be compared to mine, same as how mine can't be compared to EUR003act's. My number is only comparable to EuroAccord13's because we dyno'd at the same place. Even then, it is not 100% comparable because we did our dyno runs on different dates.Quote:

If there is enough interest in Melbourne, I can slap a dyno day in 2 weeks so everyone can have fun.
YES PLEASE NICK - I need to dyno the new car.
Just to keep with the topic, here is my dyno from last year.... ahh, those were fun times...
Only mod was the Ghetto™ intake.

when getting dyno'd whats the best print out to get? Power VS RPM, speed A/F etc?
Sorry if i am noobish at this.
Depends on what you want to know really but in most cases, power relative to RPM is what the general public wants as it's easy to read, for an enthusiasts, they might want to know other variables such as MAP and A/F...
Thanks EuroAccord.Quote:

Why wont anyone listen to me about the K series knock sensor:confused:
K pro actually disables its retard ability........
Oh ...hang on..............i know
I dont have euro written under my avatar & i dare venture into the euro forum,I'll have to find my way back to the poverty stricken forums,bye
btw aarong,those AF's are shocking,i think the measuring device was wrong somehow
I think you make a fair comment. I went to a dyno day where my almost stock euro (lightweight rims) was on the dyno compared to another stock euro. My euro dynoed almost 20% higher peak numbers than the other euro (both 6mt). Was my car 20% more powerful? No way. The Euro is temperamental with its power and I don't trust dyno numbers anyway. Real world rolling acceleration figures are far more convincing.Quote:

dyno = approximation
can never get the perfect numbers.
