  • Performance Tuner Magazine Article TECH : Dyno Discrepancies Transcribed Because of Image Quality
    Performance Tuner Magazine Article TECH : Dyno Discrepancies Transcribed because of image quality Subtitle : Think of a Number Performance is a numbers game. But just how reliable are those numbers when they’re produced on a rolling-road? We take one car to five different chassis dynamometers on the same day to answer that question. Story and photos : Peter Knivett Rolling-road thrashes : don’t you just love them? Gathering a group of similar machines together at some willing rolling road always makes for pretty interesting reading – and particularly the owner’s reactions after what can all too often be a disappointing power run. The textbook line is usually ‘I’m gutted, I thought it would make over 300bhp,’ when their pride and joy has actually made just 187 bhp. On the face of it, who’d argue with this disappointed punter’s line of thinking? After all, they’ve probably spent thousands of pounds on all the right tuning goodies, plus they ‘had a mate on an internet forum who’s told me it must be really quick, because his brother said so, and he worked at Prodrive once, and he knows what he’s talking about…’ Month in, month out, you see this sort of tale repeated across all sectors of the performance tuning market, and it never fails to amuse, because it’s a classic case of putting the component-expenditure cart before the testing horse. Despite melting his credit card by splashing out on tuning goodies our disappointed punter forgot to spend just 50-75 pounds having his car tested on a rolling-road, which could well have made a crucial difference to its ultimate performance.
