Desktop Dyno Software

Anyone use any of the Desktop Dyno Software in relation to our LT1/LT4`s?
How flexible is the software to adapt our intakes,EFI, etc.?
Thanks!

I have an old version at work...I'll try and get some screen shots on Monday to show you what that version of desktop dyno had. I can't help you on the new stuff.

Re: Desktop Dyno Software

I know I have a copy of Desktop Dyno, and Dyno2000 laying around somewhere, but I don't know where. I do have the latest, Dynosim, installed.

In this version, there are several types of intakes to choose from. I have chosen Tuned Port Injection as the closest type.

Re: Desktop Dyno Software

Thanks fellas. I was thinking of getting the Desktop Dyno software, just to play with, learn, etc. It`s a shame the LTX manifolds aren`t really called out in the software. I guess, as long as I look at things as trends or how changing something effects the big picture, it may be worthwhile.

Re: Desktop Dyno Software

Correct me if I'm wrong here but aren't the LTx manifolds closest in design to the Tunnel-Ram manifold choice.

Re: Desktop Dyno Software

Yes, you are correct. I had the wrong file open when I took that screenshot - my bad. (it was another LT1 file I have)

For my stock LT1 file, I use the Tunnel ram-std along with the 'low performance heads' to get the curves in the proper place and the numbers as close as possible - even though there still high by about 20 on hp and tq.
