whats the difference....how much power is a dyno jet gonna read over a mustang dyno....thanks

165.4 mustang dyno equals what on a dyno jet

 

I posted this a long time ago on another forum

"Turbo Magazine has a great comparison of 6 different dynos. The results of course varied by a significant amount. They used a 350Z as the test car and did it all on the same day. The results where as followed

Dynapack (5500) 249.4hp
DTS 257.6hp
Dynojet 248(dos) 235.8hp
Dynojet 248 (windows) 243.7hp
Clayton VTT 265.7hp
Super Flow (SF1853) 228.9hp

I used the Dynojet (windows) as the reference. Most people use this type of Dyno. Some simple math will let you compare results from different dyno’s.

Dynapack .945
DTS .915
Dynojet (dos) .967
Dynojet (windows) 1.0
Clayton .887
Super Flow 1.03

So if you take my car which dynoed at 185whp on a Dynojet (windows based) then you can deduce that it would make about 195whp (185/.945=195) on a Dynapack dyno. Of course this is just an estimate and even different Dynojets dynos use different software for correction purposes. But at least this gives us a guide."

To bad they didnt do a mustang dyno. I know crate did about 180whp on a windows dynojet and about 130ish on the mustang.

 

165.4 + 16%= 191.864

 

its not that simple matt. That is what the guy with the mustang dyno wants you to belive.

 

i know it depends on the dyno, but ive seen many examples of a 16% correction factor.

 

oh. ok. just saying.

 

bobby whats up with dyno jet

 

My car made over 40whp less on a Mustang Dyno than on a Dyno Jet.

Mustang Dynos are better for diagnostics / troubleshooting.

DynoJets are better for showing off big HP numbers.

 

The shop that uses the dyno also play a part in this. Abacus has always done a good job running a dyno. From what I have seen of the people running the Mustang Dyno at the Charity Event a year ago I was not impressed.

 

It's sad that even the two same dynos were so far off simply due to the operating system they ran in?! What the hell differnece should that make?! Needs to be an industry standard correctioning aid with every dyno, you know? Some sort of calibration or something.
