Comparing DLL and a Mustang isn't a good comparison. You shoud have at least used VD on the Mustang setting.

Ill just stick to a DJ then a couple road pulls to make sure drivability and the powerband is still smooth and safe on the road.

Everyone is going to have their own comment on this and no one will agree. This is a waste of time imho.

im glad you brought this up, because from:

dyno numbers
virtual dyno
track times
etc etc.

these all dont mean nothing! i car that runs 10.5 at one track probably wont run the same in another.

just enjoy your car and, if it feels fast and fun for you thats all that matters..

I made the same mistake (and friends) coming off the dyno with nice numbers,feeling great, only to be disappointed when they hit the track. Its really better to just think your car is faster then everyone elses lol.

U are a drama queen, bruh...


Dynos are meant to take out the variables and show the delta, trying to replicate conditions is adding variables(and u can't replicate it 100%) it's defeating the whole idea of an indoor dyno IMO. All I said is that u should always checks and retune after seenng changes on the road or track. E tunes suffer the opposing condition, u can't repeat outside street conditions as u can on the dyno..a bit of both, starting with the dyno is the best IMO.

Hopefully u drama dudes can actually talk like men and use your brain, thinking like sheep is a crappy part of this hobby and people like murder evo make it 10x worse for throwing gasoline. Pturbo can't handle someone disagreeing, what a shame.

Everyone is entitled to an opinion, but we are not talking opinions here, we are talking facts. I could care less about hp numbers or figures. But you are completely wrong in your understanding that a dynomometer cannot replicate road conditions exactly. It is my full time job doing this type of thing in certified labratory setting and we use the exact same mustang software as I use at krazyhouse. I have had to back up my data multiple times for submission to EPA and CARB on multiple vehicles as well as vehicles deemed too heavy or out of limit for the dyno. I think I know what I am doing.

As for your airflow concern, which I am guessing you are basing this whole argument off of, it is very simple. Find a fan (typically a duct fan) capable of matching windspeed up to your test speed and hook it up to a variable Hz. drive with a simple 0-10v output from the mustang cart and you are in buisness. It just so happens to be another requirement in a certified test cell.
Sure people don't care about they're dyno or set them up correctly, I get it.
