CALLOUT: DYNO CHALLENGE EVAN , MOSELY and KIZDAWAY

[Moseley]

The only reason why the power appears to be changing on the dyno pulls is because the 1st run was a shakedown. The 2nd run wasn't revved out all the way, because mike didn't know what the redline was. Evan told him he could rev it higher, so he did. Then there were a few more pulls made until power stabilized. However, some of those pulls were lost when mike was trying to delete them from the overlay, but deleted them from the hard drive. There were more pulls made than mosley knows about. I believe Mike has tried to tell him this fact. The final comparison was legit. It showed the stabilized power of the SSR header vs. the stabilized power of the kiddracing. It's not complicated.

Oh yay this is back and kicking again... So what started all of this was that the dyno tests were poorly executed. So let's stop all the BS and talk about why. Here is the graph:


1st run: Was a shakedown, ok
2nd run: Wasn't reved out all the way, but who cares. It made it's power, the torque curve shows everything. it consistently made 4-5 more torque across the board.
3rd run: Look, another 4-5 torque all across the board. This usually happens when the car is still warming up.

That was all the info I had at the time, 3 pulls were done, each one showed an increase of 4-5 lbs of torque, so why was there not a 4th pull? On top of that... the runs on mike's header were done open header. You can claim it makes no difference but that is just speculation. There are many reasons why unbolting the exhaust can affect the power levels of a car. Running open header vs. full exhaust just adds in more variables to the equation. So from my point of view, this was a bad comparison because...

1) Never seeing the SSR pulls stabilize into any sort of consistency
2) Running one header without an exhaust bolted up

That is all I was trying to say from day 1. I never said the tests were rigged so I don't know where all of that came from.

Lately there's a lot of reassuring that there was a 4th pull made but it was deleted for the purposes of building the overlay. I find that funny because there was never any mention of that 4th pull until I layed out exactly where the problem was in the SSR pulls. So here are all of the pulls:


You know what is funny? If Mike had deleted the 4th pull for the purpose of building the overlay, wouldn't RunFile_004 be missing from the sequence?
