shootout mode or not, the car feels very quick on the street and will put 300rwkw cars behind it, that's what maks me happy, but as you said danny, lets keep it on topic and I'll look forward to your next installment

Whats a timeslip got to do with this thread?

I was suggesting show a "shootout mode" dyno sheet for refrence.. Whats the point of even talking about tuning here when XXX comes here with a dyno sheet with god knows how much correction dialed in.

In the land of a dyno dynamics dyno, without shootout mode, you press the "X" key on the keyboard, and punch in 1.10, and instantly the customers car has 10% more power. SHOOTOUT MODE denies you doing this!

There's no way, in shootout mode that you will make that power with those mods. Simple..

If you watch the graph plot as the car runs, there can't be any changing of the power figure can there, I know I watched mine run up in real time

time slips can give a good indication of a cars power re the MPH acheived, so if we are going to question ppls power, that is one way of showing it

The "X" Key / Correction value can be changed before or after a dyno run... Heck. it could have been set 5 years ago at 1.15, and forgotten about. And for the last 5 years, your dynos shown 15% higher power. The dyno will prompt every so often for Air temp, and humidity, this will also change the correction factor.. If the dyno operator is under the pump, chances are they will just go enter enter enter, and it remains the same.

This is why I've requested a shootout mode graph, it stops the dyno operator from changing the correction factor, and relys on a weather station, and air intake probes to calculate AND print all the shootout figures along the bottom of the dyno.

Yes mph is a good indication of 1/4 mile times.. You ran it? what mph did you get

Interesting to hear about the "X" Key and correction factors. So are you saying that in shootout mode the X factor is set to a predetermined figure? Do you know what it is?

What do you mean by "Yes mph is a good indication of 1/4 mile times" ??

Sorry to go off topic...
