I sometimes wish the US was like Australia where Dyno Dynamics was the only dyno used...haha.

I have given up on trying to explain this to customers, they feel better going down the street and seeing 400whp even if in reality they are only making 330 real road HP with the proper mechanical drag accounted for with an EM-Brake.
I have up as well, that's why I just use numbersjet numbers to explain things...it helps even the forum playing field in terms of explanations. Plus it's hard to explain that D/D is a better number, when most traditional drag calculators follow DJ numbers so closely :/

I'll get my car on a DD dyno yet. I'm changing some stuff, so I'd like to see what my car makes again on the dyno I always use, and then head to a DD to see how she works out.


I like ApexI and Cosworth headgaskets.

For those wanting my manifold:

Extrude Hone - Deburring and Surface Finishing (for the polishing)
Racing Service Enthalpy (for the external gate)
Swain Tech Coatings for engine piston coatings, race engine coatings, ceramic header coating, carbide metal coatings, thermal spray plasma coating, metalizing closures, spray welding (for the coating).

You should do them in that order as well. If you don't want one of the steps, just omit it from the list without changing anythign else.
