What Affects dyno results?????
The other night, I got into an argument with my roomate about what effects dyno results and also he said that HP means nothing. Torque is everything in a car and you dont even need any HP. Please post what you all think about the two subjects.........Later

HP is just TQ referenced by RPM. You know HP=TQxRPM/5252.
You cant have one without the other.

right...but TQ is the ONLY thing that can be directly measured. Thats why people say that TQ is everything. You can directly measure a TQ value.
HP will always be derived from atleast two factors...wether TQ and rpm, rpm and time, etc etc...but it will always be two.

Thats why we try to dyno with as close to same conditions "as" possible. This at least removes some of the variables. The key to properly using a dyno is to stay with the same dyno as you build you project. No two dynos read the same so its tough to internet compare all the time. We have a Dyno Dynamics Eddy current brake dyno in which it incorporates an actual torque sensor. It really measures torque as opposed to calculating it out through a rotating mass. This "true" reading and referenced with the injector pulse (for rpm signal) really increases repeatablity and accuracy!

What does SAE define as the 1349 Rev 90 correction factor values?
