Where are you getting this information from? "I was told"..... Kind of like people going around and saying "Matt" is de-tuning cars right....

What's next?

and like Matt said... It's a tuning tool.

Just busting balls..

I agree with Matt, though I do think it's nice to have a comparable number, it helps to verify that things are working properly without going to the track (which isn't always a good indicator anyways.. I've had customers make 600whp and run 12s and had customers make 330 and go mid 11s). I've had numerous cars on that dyno and dynojets and the numbers have always been comparable. I've had a few customer cars put down the same on both with the same setups and no changes..

You cant go off of everything someone tells you...especially if that person is not talking about the issue in a positive manner.
Jamies car was at 485 max but his highest trap was 132mph and i beleive that was when he was at 475whp. And Roberts car if Im not mistaken was having issues on his dyno day I was there. But Im not sure if he cleared those issues up before he went to the track. But it is what it is, hopefully the weather will be good this weekend so I can get to the track and see what happens.

Haha I was talking about fwd Dave!

Oh and about the retunes....I never tell anyone to come back for a retune unless they changed their setup around or their car had some kind of problem in the first place when I tune it like a bad fuel pump or something. Doesn't make sense to do something like that....

I think the tuning competition around here is starting to come around and things like this start happening.

People that come to the dyno just to see a number are not making any use of the equipment. Use it for tuning or comparing setup changes that are tested on the same dyno...not just to get a bragging number.
I never knew jojo went 9's at 150+?

I went 142mph on around 575 hp 23psi btw. The track wasnt hooking that, so I didnt turn it up to 27psi where I made 656 not 670!
