Custom Code Reflash dyno result

[Sharkie]

I don't care what a dyno does with the figures it gets from an IT sensor. There are many inputs that a dyno may need and they may come from many sources. I agree that manipulating these can lead to incorrect figures.

My point is that intake temperature can only ever be measured at 1 point........ where it actually enters the engine. Anywhere else and it is not intake temp now is it?

This is how every turbo car manufacturer in the world does it. If you can't understand that then I'd be worried .....

We need to start a "Dynos, Temp sensors, and who actually gives a sh*t" Thread in Performance and Tuning, and and give a few people an automatic pistol and box of ammo to play Russian Roulette. Would be good for a laugh.

So Shane, how about that dyno sheet...

I think sebs point is that a dyno reads the intake temp in order to apply a correction. In other words. If it reads hot the power reading gets higher.

The manufacturer reads the temp in order to adjust the cars tune. The two things are completely different

So when seb gets his knickers in a knot about a dyno plot its for a reason. Its because he understands how these things work.

Yes, agreed, and not disputing the purpose of either at all.

I'm happy with the fact (if not the result) that a dyno adjusts figures based on intake temp readings.

However, to suggest that you take readings from somewhere else and then call them intake temps and use these for calculations etc is BS.

if the reading is taken from 3 feet in front of the car that means that sharkie's FMIC'd car and my stocko SMIC'd have the same intake temp, which definitely is not the case, especially after about 10mins of drive-time.

i do understand where seb is coming from by setting a 'level playing field' with temps for the dyno but as sharkie said, it shouldn't be used or called an intake temp, because its not.

Can we PLEASE just stay on topic here - Shane's results ... not the whole damn dyno B/S AGAIN!!!!!

apologies, it would just appear that some can't read shane's first post.

Please dont turn this into another one of those threads.

[DubSteve]

I agree with Sharkie and Rhys with the probe about 3 feet in front of the car which being accomplished there

Can we PLEASE just stay on topic here - Shane's results ... not the whole damn dyno B/S AGAIN!!!!!

Dave I remember saying that in the first few posts ohh dear how far we have come

[RhysQ]

shane/gavin, are you ready to share a price for the custom code? i'm sure there are a few that would like to know! (sorry if it's already posted, i couldn't find it)

it doesn't have to be what shane paid (if he got a special deal) but what the general public would expect to pay.
