Ill have to keep this in the back of my mind. I have 2 vehicles Id like to put on the rollers. How much if A/F isnt needed?

I think he is charging based on time frame..not whether you do 2 or 3 pulls or whether he clamps the sniffer on the muffler or not.

It takes time to set-up a car on the rollers. They'd be lucky to get 2 cars on and off the dyno in an hour.

It doesn't get any cheaper than 50$ for 3 pulls..with or without WB.

Agreed but usually at most dyno days that Ive seen advertised the shop usually charges more for a A/F reading. Didnt know if that was the case here too.

I agree. Hell call any of the other dyno shops in the area and see what they say.

I know that 3 pulls for $50 with a/f has to be the best deal in town.

Powerzone has gone up on their pricing for dyno days and I can not remember about showzone

Bob also never strapped a car down. It was always club members doing all the dirty work. F THAT. I have been there many of times strapping cars down and let me tell you this, if it wasn't for 4 people doing it it would have been 2 cars instead of the 5 or so.

In my experience we are there to have fun and not work. :bigthumb: I will not get started on that chapter of my life

that may be what happenend when you went, but when i was there it was him and his race car driver doing the strapping. he was doing 2 pulls per car, a/f price and without and like i said he did more than 2 per hour. this isn't what i heard i was there and saw. not one club member did work.

Our DynoJet 224xLC measures up to 2000 + hp and 200mph. We have had 1400whp Ford GT's as well as 1700ft-lb Dualie's on the dyno with no problems. If you are wanting to bring a Dualie out please make sure the track width (rear outside tire to rear outside tire) does not exceed 80 inches. Also, we will not dyno any dualies with stacks. We must be able to hook our exhaust system to your exhaust so we do not smoke out our entire shop like our last dyno day. We also will prefer to dyno the dualie's towards the end of the day since they typically take far longer to set-up than a regular car. Difficult dualies will be subject to a slightly increased fee. Again, they typically take 2x as long to dyno as a regular vehicle.

The price is $50 bucks with or without wideband 02 (dualie's subject to slightly increased fee depending on specific truck). As stated earlier, you're pretty much paying for the time getting everything set-up on the dyno. We strap the vehicle in while you sit back and relax. We are also setting up our HD projection screen so all results will be shown on a 10' x 10' area on the front shop wall. We are a bit different than some of the other shops when it comes to dyno days. I actually will take time out after the runs to discuss with our customers the vehicles results and what type of options are available to get improved results. We also do not have our dyno in a shed that generates 150 degree intake air temps like PowerZone's set-up. We also are not running windows 3.1, lol.

Here are some snaps of our new shop set-up. I'm looking forward to a fun Dyno Day and meeting you guys as well!

AV_Tuning

We can dyno trucks that have a wheel width longer than 80". The problem is we have to pull the side plates on the dyno off in order to run the vehicle. We want to keep things running as efficiently as possible and this takes a good amount of time so if there are any vehicles like this they will be scheduled to run last.

Ow, well fair enough on dually setup, lol.

About the A/C, I got it setup to turn off at 80% throttle. I just said that because it's going to be in the mid 90's saturday. When I was on the rollers in Ohio it was 80 something and very low humidity.

I thought big red was a mustang gt turned cobra R clone with Nebraska sticker on the back window and 28 lbs of tire shine on the low profile tires atop the 18" CHROME Cobra R's?

LOL, he doesnt have drag radials, he has BFG KD's, same summer tire as a cobra R, it wasnt raining, it was a long time ago, he didnt have full coverage...now it sits

he hit a pot hole while getting on it, and somehow ended in the ditch on dorchester rd where to you turn to leave the airport. It happened quite a while ago too

completely different story than i got, well atleast he is all right and i hope he fixes it back up.

LXtasy
07-07-2010, 06:12 PM
There has never been drag radials on that car EVER.

Story that I heard was.

He left a car show and it started raining. He ended up in a ditch with the car. Speculation is that there was enough tire shine all over the tires and thread that soul glo would be jealous. Car is supposedly being rebuilt as funds allow because of the fact there was no full coverage and is being paid out of pocket.

That is what I was told is that it was raining. If not, than we can still blame tire shine. But for whatever it is worth, there are tons of mustang guys at carshows happy that they get a chance to bring home some $5 trinkets for a little while

We'll see you guys tomorrow! We can dyno trucks larger than a 80" rear track... but we will have to pull the side plates off the dyno. If there are enough of you guys we can fit all of you guys in at once towards the end. Again, we must be able to hook our exhaust system up to your exhaust outlet so we don't smoke out the entire shop.

If you are coming from 526 turn right onto dorchester road. As soon as you go over the railroad tracks (big bridge past the OLD harley shop) turn immediately right (across the street from Melcer tile.) You than will be on a service road heading back towards 526. The building is the last building on the left (only 2 or 3 buildings there). And that is where you are at. The buildings roof is about level with the bridge right there on Dorchester road.

Smart staff will usually establish what rpm and how the owner would like his car run prior to the run, but I can understand the concerns.

On a side note, it's funny how many people think their car should be spun up to 6500 rpm until they get it on the dyno and realize that they're power is all in by 5500.

They were pretty cool about it. I expressed my concerns about dynoing my truck and they were a little hesitant to let me do it but after they found out that I had made pulls on a dyno before they decided to let me do the pulls in the L. I guess the felt comfortable enough because the let me do my car also.

I had a great day. Thanks to the staff.

my car seemed to be blowing out the spark, i had no knock on the last two runs, i need to look at the plugs in the morning. but the car pulled strong.

so far: dyno Ended @ 5600rpms because of the engine missing..

586HP @5600 rpm
552TQ @5000ish rpm's

shes got a 600 in her, maybe a 620 if im lucky,, i was happy anything over 544.

All dyno pulls were STD correction so the numbers are higher than normally seen with the typical SAE correction.

Air temp per the computer was 100. :shock:

alot of shops will use the STD correction on dyno days to make everyone feel good. Chris Tuten in columbia showed me the difference between the 2 when i got tuned and STD definetly gives better numbers.

Seems right in line with all the other dyno numbers Ive seen on cars that have 1-2k miles on them. The only thing Im not certain about the rest of them is their weather conditions.

SAE in some cases can be higher than STD. lots of variables..

Put it on the rollers in the winter and i bet it will gain. Or just spray nitrous all over it....

I have NEVER seen SAE higher than STD. Please explain how this is possible.

just take the run file and open it up in WinPEP7 and tell it to use SAE correction with smoothing of 5, then tell it to use STD correction and you will see higher numbers with the STD correction then SAE.

STD numbers are very popular with the import crowd because it gives higher results every time. there are many articles written about the difference and each one states STD has higher numbers.

Take it to the track and run your et and MPH through the calculators along with race wieght and you will know how much HP your vehicle is producing. Dyno's are only a tuning tool and for those who want to dyno race.

I found #6 spark plug wire was a click off. And I wiggled #7 plug and it just fell off. I pulled the plugs and the gap was .040, regapped them to .032. I'll schedule another dyno just to make sure it's not breaking up top anymore... Not happy though

Why not? Because it was acting up?

I agree with Hal Sr. The ET and trap are what matter if you really want to compare power..and that can only be done by region. The only thing I don't agree with is the "import" part. I've seen both sides have their "HP Heros" clammering to get on Dynojets vs. Mustang/dynoDynamics...just to get the bigger numbers.

I'll go ahead and speak for evo owners when I say that we like non-corrected #'s. If you post up a dyno on Evom with any CF, it will be dismissed or divided back down to 1.00 cf.


If it's hot and humid when you dyno....tough shit...it's exactly the same element you are going to get on the street THAT DAY and you don't get corrected ET at the track. It makes what it makes. Sucks we don't all live in the North East but those are the breaks...

I would like to thank all of you guys for coming out on Saturday. We had some very nice set-ups and I hope everybody had a good time. We took a large amount of HD video's that we will be making a Dyno Day Compilation of in the near future. It will be on our website: www.av-engineered.com. I will also try and upload all of the pictures that were taken as well once we get caught up with the work that we currently have in the shop.

We typically do not allow people to make runs on our dyno due to safety. I can typically tell the users who are familiar with a Dyno and who are not. I also understand that some people are very particular with their vehicles so we take that into consideration as well. As stated before, we always discuss with the customer the basics to ensure the vehicle is not damaged on the dyno (rpm, mph, trac control, any special factors, etc). I have been operating Dyno's for over 10yrs and I know how one bad experience at one shop can scar someone for life. Our cars are like our children to us, lol.

As far as the correction factor debate goes... I'm going to keep it simple. SAE correction factors were made for naturally aspirated vehicles. The SAE correction factor can be overcompensating on forced induction setups and the barometric pressure adjustment is not accurate for forced induction setups. I have no problems emailing you guys the SAE charts as well. If there are any special requests or you would like a different dyno chart please email me at AVengineering@gmail.com with your detailed request, full name, and vehicle. If you don't get a reply right away please be patient... we've got a very heavy work-load at the moment.

Thanks again guys! We will be doing another Dyno Day later in the year around December 2010.

Will it be able to accommodate diesel torque readings then? I figure it cant hurt to ask.
