Dyno results

[217gsr]

I finally got a straight response from the shop. It seems that their dyno is not calibrated. What upsets me is that they knew that it wasn't calibrated, but no one let us know. My friend and I waited for 3.5 hours before we could get even one of us strapped to the dyno (I waited another 1.5 hrs for my dyno), and no one let us know this information BEFORE we started to wait.

Their excuse is that they primarily use the dyno to tune, and that the final number is not as important to them as the increase in power after the tuning.

Oh well. . . I'm tired of being upset over this.

Sounds like a pretty lame answer. I wonder if it isn't "calibrated" if it gives consistent data period. Who knows. You could always ask for a refund, might not get anything but you definitely won't if you don't ask. I wonder if they have a lease with Dynojet for their equipment that a letter might be in order about one of their operators.

Yeah. I considered asking for a refund. . . but on one hand, I did have the dyno done. On the other hand, I didn't have it done on a dyno that was working "properly."

Oh well. . .I'm leaving to Irvine this weekend, so I don't really have the time to complain anymore.

Hey CPA. I took your advice about checking with dynojet. The good news is that I found out that the dyno that Engineuity uses is NOT a dynojet.

1. Dynojets don't need to be calibrated.
2. They did not use Dynojet's PEP program for data acquisition.

The bad news is that I'm still where I was at before. . . assed out. [img]confused.gif[/img]
