Don't forget what bill & mike have both hinted at though... the 'old' dyno is pretty effective at over reading (LCR's did dyno reliabley at 285 there, but 265 anywhere else)

shape wise is what you should be comparing rather than numbers in this instance

But don't get cut up about it, if peak numbers are your thing - that's fine.

What would be interesting is a known to be good dyno to compare & contrast with (sadly we used to use stealth, but that now over reads :()

I'll have to dig out the graph where I replotted the data (I had the raw data) for all the major (at the time)dyno runs

Would be good if you can get that for a range of cars

the fun of RR days is on the day for the same settings "relative" comparisons can be made.

Those of use who have done these (lots) will know you get those who are happy with their results and those who feel a little bit dissapointed with them.

"Dyno Lottery" (TM) :)

Its all good fun tho so long as peeps dont get so hung up with absolute numbers.

Cheers peeps.

It driveability that matters and it drives like a dream! Pulls like a train and holds the power. Can't ask for much more than that.

Running at Marlin in 3 weeks so it'll be good to compare. Have heard Marlin come up low though :confused: Should be interesting then! :D

mine read slightly lower, roughtly 10bhp and 10lb/ft. But that could have been the heat. Although on my second run i ran it cold so engine wasnt hot. still didnt break 210bhp when 3 weeks before i got 215 elsewhere. dyno lottery, at least i can compare my last 3 printouts from marlin! :)

One thing though. I've still got not noise coming from the DV? No audible chirp or dump :confused: What kind of noise are you k03s boys getting? Only other k03s I've been in has a nice sharp chirp. You know who you are boy lol!
