    i'm not too clear on this...

    thanks

    manufacturer gets its power figures from the flywheel..........(engine dyno).....thatr way they give you the reading of wat power the engine makes with no loss at all through any driveline.............

    i only prefer hub dyno, as it has no chance to slip and wheel spin..............and it gives a more accurate reading i beleive....................im not chasing power figures...............i only want it to be tuned perfect, inm not saying that roller dynos are no good.......me and my mates only have our cars dyno tyned for accuracy and a dyno is only a tuning tool, yes it does give you a reading of power.....but hey like people compare.......other dynos show different power and on different days......the weather it all makes a difference...............even on ahub dyno all factors are to be considered........................

    its personal choice and like i said, i onmly prefer a hub dyno as it has no chance of slipping/wheelspining

    thats my theory........

    please guys....dont kill me for my theory and explanation....everyone has there own opinion

    so, they take the wheel off and bolt the dyno up to the hubs?

    That's exactly right.

    Hub-dyno's are a good way of measuring and tuning power (not to say roller dynos are not a good way) but as IEVAQ8 mentioned, it reduces the chance of slippage and is much more accurate.

    I've only ever tuned on a hub-dyno and measured power on a roller dyno.

    This may sound stupid n is probably wrong but is any power lost in the wheels' inertia? if so wouldnt it be more accurate to have the wheels on the dyno?

    Power is lost driving the weight of the wheels.
