very good point.

Actually, the correct math is DJ number/.83 for a 17% drivetrain loss. So, if a car pulled 300HP on a DJ and its drivetrain loss is 17%, the estimated crank HP is ~361 (300/.83).

OK....For the record I in no way insinuated that Mellon inflated my numbers or anybody else's numbers! I know that Mellon is very honest and that he knows how to work ALL the tuning tools that he has available.

In addition, I did not intend to make this thread so that sponsors on this site can go "At it".....even though it is entertaining. If anybody knows a shop in Houston that has a awd DYNOJET then i will take my car there and get it dynoed so i can compare all three HP representations.

I think that anybody that has questioned any of the three methods could read this thread and find out some interesting stuff and decide for their own which representation is correct. Mellon is STILL the best tuner in my opinion based on my experience with him!

I would ask that the moderator not allow any more posts to this thread because there is nothing else to talk about!
