I will be dynoing the car soon to see what it puts down. It will be on a Mustang dyno ( not my choice, but that's what we got ). i have heard the numbers from the Mustang dynos don't give accurate numbers for our cars?? If so, how do i figure it? If the car puts down 300 on the Mustang what would it show on a different dyno?

 

Perhaps that it is nots that they don't provide accurate measures as much as they may differ from a Dynojet. Some say that the Mustang reads about 8 to 12 percent below the Dynojet.

I guess if you want to compare numbers you could use a rough estimate, however if you really want to know what it would read on a Dynojet then you would have to use a dynojet.

Dynoing your car is really only useful if you can tune it. Spending money to dyno is otherwise just a way of becoming disappointed or elated based on your numbers compared to someone elses (which is mostly inaccurate since the conditions are never exactly the same) JMHO

 

Many Mustang dynos have the eddy current option which allows you to simulate driving conditions. You can then target an rpm/map value and optimize your combination. The eddy current load is much better than riding the drum/roller brake on a dynojet to try to load the vehicle. Many consider the Mustang the true tuners dyno because it offers the loading capability.
