Dr_Drift Posted September 20, 2004 Share Posted September 20, 2004 Condolences Dave, If you like you more than welcome to bring it up for an 'unofficial' run to reclaim your title, especialally now the dyno is accurately callibrated front and rear, identical callibration to all Auto Salon Dyno Comps post last elb salon. For those who mentioned the dyno was reading too low, the dyno was professionally callibrated both mornings of the show, just because they made more somewhere else, on a different dyno, on a different day, with different temps, etc etc DOES NOT MEAN OUR DYNO IS WRONG. Perhaps these other dyno are reading too high? Sam.

inark Posted September 20, 2004 Share Posted September 20, 2004 yeah that was my thoughts samson... not many people know how dynos work properly remember and think they are universally meant to be identical...

If your dyno cant get stock Civic to make 200fwkw then it must be stuffed :wassup: I tried to use my car as an example to highlight dyno inconsistencies Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/51460-what-happened-leewah/page/4/#findComment-1019341 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Horus Posted September 20, 2004 Share Posted September 20, 2004 ...so how long till the car is back on the road? Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/51460-what-happened-leewah/page/4/#findComment-1019347 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leewah Posted September 20, 2004 Share Posted September 20, 2004 Thanks for the offer Sam but unless it's gonna be official, I don't really see the point. It's a real shame that I knew how much power my car was making on Friday night but she failed to perform on the day. Kinda like a Sally Robbins effor really.... The car will back on the road during the week when we can find some time inbetween customers to get the piping fabricated and a new radiator fitted. Everything else is fine so nothing else needs to be done except turn the boost back down to streetable power.
