there's a local guy in Elkton that has a mobile dyno. That would at least give you an idea of what you are doing. From what I remember, his prices weren't that bad. I can look into it some more, if you want.

Theres a guy in roanoke that has a dynojet - 75$ for 3 pulls - could do some slight tuning. I'm sure he'd work a deal for a group run.

problem is some of us are awd....

HAULN-SS · 05-27-2006, 04:02 PM

a mobile dyno is a dyno that isn't installed in ground. They are transported on the back of a truck or trailer and can be setup on site. Basically you drive onto a 4 post lift, raise up, back onto the rollers and go. They have them at the track sometimes (to verify your stated HP/TQ is what it really is) and I'll be doing my certified dyno run (for AI) on one next weekend at Carlisle.

I'm down for that. Like to get a base on mine so I know where i'm at now.

l33t Mr2 · 05-30-2006, 11:54 AM

i am down with the mobile dyno, we should call that guy up and ask for pricing/group discount.

**Jeff** · 05-31-2006, 09:21 PM

How far off are you guys thinking? My engine just came back and once the internals are balanced (thanks tax check!!!) I should be back in business. I'd certainly be down.

I always heard mobile dynos were hit or miss for being calibrated correctly. I wouldnt put a ton of faith into the readings.

.RJ · 05-31-2006, 10:41 PM

All dynos are hit and miss for "numbers"...... they're tuning tools, nothing else Smile

HAULN-SS · 05-31-2006, 10:44 PM

how much tuning are you going to do on a mobile dyno on a dyno day, when it takes 20 minutes in strapdown/takeoff time? so, now that we've established you're going for the numbers - hope it reads high for ya'll (not being an ass..just saying)

I posted in the Lounge section, Id be happy to work out a permanent deal with MM for dyno days.

What kind of dyno do you have? If dynojet model number please.

HAULN-SS · 06-19-2006, 08:55 PM

If you havent gotten it yet, i hear nothing but bad things about mustang dynos.

Why?

Mustang dynos are far more useful than dynojets, as it is a loading dyno rather than an inertia dyno.

But its still up to the dyno operator/tuner to make the most out of the information. The dyno is just a tool, its up to the tuner to make the most of it.
