What will a Dyno Dynamometer “tell” me about an engine?
By comparing your initial Dyno reading to the specifications published in our Performance Guidelines booklet for that particular engine, you can determine if its producing proper full throttle power. If it isnt , or if you are making modifications for additional performance, your initial Dyno reading serves as a reference point. For each subsequent Dyno run you can actually measure the increase or decrease in power resulting from your work. Also, the Operators Manual contains tuning/diagnostic hints with general pressure loss readings typically resulting from problems such as a dead cylinder, power pack breakdown, high-speed miss, acceleration bog, heat-related problems, etc. The Dyno is a time saving tool.
