I haven't really played with it but I think the power is RWKW, which would indicate that the 276 seems pretty high. To get it spot on you would need a really good measure of car weight.I wouldn't really think that it would be something you could hang your hat on but could possibly be a handy tool to get comparisons of changes after mods, perfecting launch technique and so on...

Stuffed if I know why I wrote %...Anyways, yeah that's my point, that the program would therefore not be able to accurately give a reading...Back to the dyno sheet I think for a closer to true reading!!!

It wasn't a quote; the part below was a rewrite ws Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
