Default Dyno Owners Inside Please

Hi there,

I am about to enter the world of owning a chassis dyno. I have attended both the SEMA and PRI shows and visited almost every dynamometer booth and website. I never realized how many impressive systems were out there! I would like to hear why you guys purchased the system you did, and are you happy with it. More importantly, if you had to do it over again, what would you do differently??

Thanks in advance!

I bought a Dynojet the first time , and the second. It is the industry standard at this point in time. I think the mustang dyno is a better solution for turbo cars, but gives different readings and is very "adjustable" from what I understand.

The Mustang dyno is good, but I chose the "Dyno Dynamics". I have been using dynos for about 7 years now & I can honestly say that there is no comparison between the "Dyno Jet" & the "Dyno Dynamics". A load bearing dyno is the only way to go. http://www.dyno.com.au/ or you can call Steve @1-859-983-4966, he was very helpful with me.
Thanks, Keith
