And everyone has their favorites too... I personally chose the dynapack. IMHO, I like the fact that no one has to sit on my deck lid to obtain better traction... lol! I consider it a fairly precise tool that simply bolts into my drivetrain. Doesn't get better than that imo

BTW, my car dyno'd 1700whp and 1850wtq... YEAAAA! jk... i had to throw that one out just for fun!

Looks it up, numbers are just that number what you want is a good constant tool to tune with. Dyno Dynamics dynos rock for that.
When Forged did my tune he ran 15 times on a Dyno Dynamics and my hp was within 3 hp every time.

dynos rock... in the hands of a good operator they will read very consistent and repeatability is no issue. sure from one make/model to another there is variance.. .but thats why you before and after on the same unit.

the only reason i can think of to hate dynos is if your car cant produce the results you want!

i don't think most of you got why i hate them. i hate them becaus they don't simulate real driving conditions. Yes i know if you use the same conditions over and over again you can tune it but i've never heard of a shop ever creating real wind condition... you have to relize as you speed up you are sucking in more air so if you blow the same amount of air into the car while it speeds up you are going to have different results than with real driving.
