    Dyno Readings

    So, lately my dyno has been reading a little low, lower than Superflows actually read, so I contacted SF tech dept and asked them what they thought.

    After many times back and forth on why my dyno was reading low, the variables were brought up on why, and now I need to address it. So, I think I'm gonna have it fixed.

    But, during the time I was going back and forth with this engineer, he kept saying "all dyno's are going to read differentely" and "your superflow dyno will never read the same as the next dyno".
    Of course I understood this, my question was "why is my dyno reading lower than it normally read in the past"

    He sent me an article, but one page was very interesting. It had to do with DynoJets and why they spit out bogus and inflated numbers. Yes, DynoJets are always the target and this document I'm about to share explains why. It also attacks any dyno that falls under the same technology as a DynoJet.
    We all know, or have heard of DJ's showing higher numbers than say a Superflow, Mustang, or Land and Sea dyno, but you really didn't know why. I really didn't know why either, but I knew if someone went from my dyno to a dynojet, they we're gonna get higher numbers from the DJ.
    One reason I always assumed was the DJ doesn't have a strain gauge / torque cell. I'm no mathematician, but from the calculations required to show users charts, you have to have it.

    Ok, so enough of my opinion. And before this gets out of hand, it's not attacking anyone on here, this is just a proven fact from a document I just read (actually had it for years but never read it). I own a Superflow dyno and I'm always being attacked by the DynoJet users and how their numbers are higher, or at least their ego.
