Chassis Dyno Testing - How Bogus Is Your Local Chassis Dyno?
Chassis Dyno Testing - How Bogus Is Your Local Chassis Dyno?
Our domes are on fire thanks to one seemingly simple idea we had for a great story. We wanted to go undercover at five different performance tuning facilities and test each of their chassis dynos using the same car in a short period of time.Our domes are on fire thanks to one seemingly simple idea we had for a great story. We wanted to go undercover at five different performance tuning facilities and test each of their chassis dynos using the same car in a short period of time. We hoped to uncover bogus numbers. We wanted to find the root of the problem for so many skeptical hot rodders who don't trust dynos as far as they can throw them. We were looking for a smoking gun or two. After hours of testing and days spent studying the data, we ended up with more questions than answers and decided we could write a book about the differences between dynos, test facilities, and data interpretation, and at the end of it all, we'd still arrive at the same conclusion: There is no smoking gun. The numbers just don't matter. That is unless you get off on having the biggest dyno graph on the Internet.
