    Default Is this right? 100rwkw?

    hey guys
    i just had my car dyno'd and it came out with 100rwkw.
    its a VR V6 with catback, bigmouth, K&N filter and its got a foamytune.

    probs is right just seems alittle low to me.
    just would like some feedback,
    also my mates VZ 190 with full exhaust system only got 114rwkw also

    ive heard some dynos arent very accurate. is this the case?

    thanx

    You have to remember those engines are not as good as when they were brand new. Parts are worn out and there are other factors involved. But true many people have had as much as 14KW difference on different dynos.

    And don't forget to take off at least 30% from the engine output to rwkw as well (less if its a manual).

    Take the age and inaccuracies of dynos into account as well and 100rwkw is probably fairly believable

    It'll be accurate to itself. There can easily be 20rwkw between dynos tho. I'd say to be only 14 rwkw down from a 190kw VZ with an exhaust on the same dyno is _very_ good indeed

    You should have told Holden not to bother with the Alloytec and just bought a bunch of your Buick tunes!
