Dyno In Sydney

[Wacky Dee]

Got an r34 the other week ..its stock with a new turbo back exhaust. I'd like to dyno my baby ... where can this be done and for how much?

[NYTSKY]

There are loads of places to take your car for a dyno run.Where are you located?

CRD in Silverwater

JEM in Moorebank

UAS in Seven Hills

Just to name a few.For your car expect around 160-170rwkw.

[craked]

A&b motorsposts brookvale 41 winbourne 2100 99059523

$50 for a power run

[Duncan]

Plenty of good places to choose from....where are you?

[Wacky Dee]

I'm in the inner west (5 mins from cbd) Any places around here?

edit: if anyone has a r34 gtt stocker dyno graph please post it here

I got my old car done at

'Bel garage'

$66 for 3 runs.

At Regents Park.

[R33Turbo]

Mine stock pulled: 160kwrw mark

With Cat back : 175kwrw

So full turbo back should expect up to 180kwrw im assuming? But then i read this thing about how an extra dump pipe could give loss of power without tune.

Also, what i'd like to know is which shops dyno run reads higher or lower.

Apparently UAS claims their dyno reads lower than others, and thats where i did my dyno run.

Belgarage, i heard reads accurately lower than others as well.

CRD, apparently reads too much higher than other places that ppl coming from CRD to dyno at other places get dissapointed with their runs.

Are there any more opinions on which place is accurate?

[JETR32]

HITMAN has my vote, did a great job on a tune with my power fc spanked out an extra 60 odd killer wasps just with cam gear & timing adjustments with a remap .

[R33Turbo]

ah yer i agree hitman is the best for tuning but regarding power runs does hitman show generally accurate kw?

So what i mean is, after hitman have tuned ur car, have you actually went elsewhere to dyno run and see whether it is actually 60+ kw?

And i suppose John "Pelican" at unique fed you that dribble...ive heard him say it to customers time and time again about so called "Croydon Watts"...heres some proof

My car

CRD 439kw...the next day at Autosalon Sydney 437kw

CRD 467kw (at night with cold air) the next day at Autosalon Newcastle 455kw (the heat of the day in an auditorium with not much fresh air)

CRD 486kw...the next day at Autosalon final battle Sydney 487kw then the next day took a little bit of fuel out of it to push it over 500kw with 502.4kw.

Both dyno's are of a different make from Croydon (Dynodynamics) and Autosalon (Mainline dynolog), and the dyno in Newcastle is a different Mainline Dynolog to the one used in Sydney.

They are so accurate because they are used by skilled operators with more years of experience than most people on here have been alive.

So please don't post hearsay dribble you get fed from other workshops.

And just for the record I no longer have any affiliation with Croydon Racing.

lol dirtgarage, for the record i don't take john's word and where ive heard this is from a mate (customer of CRD owns a WRX) who dyno ran and pulled 180kw then went to Autotek and pulled 150kw. And now i don't know how the weather was like but it shouldn't of made more than 10kw difference if it were to be accurate. And please don't tell me autotek is just inaccurately low, cuz then how would they get business for tuning? lol

anywayz no offence to CRD affiliates like youself

P.S. im only giving my opinion here from my experience and my friends experience, and please don't take anything offensive or you might break my engine when i go to u to rebuild it

no offence...just thought id post up some reality. Ive heard John Pelican dribble that line more times than Ive cared to remember. Autotek may have their dyno set differently...both CRD and Autosalon use industry standard locked perameters (shootout) so that figures all over Aust. can be directly compared. It is extremely accurate, as most competitors will agree and all CRD's cars have made nearly identical power at Autosalon whether it be in Adelaide, Melbourne, Brisbane, Gold Coast, Sydney or Newcastle. its no co-incidence, its a fact than can be backed up numerous times with concrete evidence witnessed in front of thousands of onlookers.

Again im no longer affiliated with CRD so i gain no benefit from sharing some real results.

You engine is in safe hands at Red R...heck id even build one for Sydneykid if i had too.

lol npz ill be there in near future.

Just a question though, about UAS in ur personal opinion are they accurate? apparently Tim from UAS says it reads generally lower especially on cold weather and not hot (due to some adjustments made for weather changes). What is ur opinion on this?

I only ask cuz u said on a cold weather ur dyno kw was better than it was on a hot weather.

Basically no dynos are directly comparable, as Paul said even in shootout mode you can accidently or deliberately get differences in temperatures and settings that give different results.

No doubt some workshops are a little harsh in the readings they give customers before they work on the car, and a little generous afterwards to make it look like they have done more than they have. This is particularly true when people have had their cars "tuned" when they have a stock, untuneable computer....

If you really want an accurate place to compare power output, take it to the drag strip and post up you MPH. No settings to play around with there, just a stop watch

[D3bb4]

I wouldn't think it's good business practice to be bad-mouthing another.

i agree 100%.

oh alright, the thing is i could never understand how much power a car made by looking at mph.

For example, mine in my sig how would u determine that?

Unfortunately I'm not one of those people lol. But 100mph seems a bit slow for a 13.7? Ask in the drag section they will sort you out.

easy...just use a calculator...like this...
