Can't wait to see the new dyno results. That car (C6 Z06) is already legendary in my book.

Im home jeremy explained alot to me about the differences between the 2 dynos and how a load bearing dyno has alot of margin for human error and actully usually reads higher #s that it should. He said a dynojet with SAE corrected numbers is the most accurate and leaves the least amount of room for error so here are my before and after dynos.

Before = Mike Norris Tune ...Dyno Dynamics Dyno(Load Bearing)



After = Jeremy Formato Tune ...DynoJet

it scanned small so here is the close up of the numbers.


and a close up of the graph.


Baseline was 451rwhp/410lbsft torque
Best was 480rwhp/445lbsft torque
Total = 29hp/35lbs torque

Car runs awsome. You guys tell me what you think i cant really differentiate because of the vastness between 2 totally different dynos. Do you guys think the car gained anything?

Nice! I do a lot of tuning there and yes that dyno room gets pretty damn hot, especially today, but what was the humidity? Pretty dry today too...

I'm giving serious thought about living on Ramen noodles and mac and cheese for a few years so I can buy a Z06.

On a load bearing dyno the computer must have the parameters loaded into it by a human before the dyno which leaves a great amount of room for error. On a dyno jet the parameters are pre loaded and not done by a human so therefore is much more accurate. I guess if you work on 1 type of car then i guess a load bearing is ok but if the car varies then errors occour.
