u can see how the power comes on, u can check how smooth the afr's are,i know u can check afrs while street tunning, but on a dyno graph u can see how smooth it is alot easier and adjust how much fuel is going in as to when ur boost comes on. u can check how it holds boost to, a boost guage isnt the best for it if u want to know if it holds perfectly. i have had a few times where on the guage and controller seems to hold it fine but on a dyno it shows how rough it really is. u will also be able to see when it makes power to and where ur max torque is which will help u out on the drags and on the track.

alot of good can come from a dyno

Im not saying a dyno is Bad, But everything you just listed Can be done with a good datalogging set-up and datalog lab. just FYI, theres no NEED for a dyno.

yes i realise but in the end u wont no if what ur changing on the tune is increasing or decreasing ur power.

o well sounds a monster anyway, i just believe u would be able to suck even more power out of it if u tuned it on a dyno as well

wrong again man, datalog lab reads horsepower and torque. Even if it isnt similar readings to a dyno it still lets you know when you have increased or lost power.

I like. I laughed at all the crap in the background on the first pic. During my build everything has been stored in labeled zip lock bags and stored in boxes on shelves. Did you consider using more assembly lube on the main bearings Just messing with you.

Very sweet.
