Our latest dyno day was filled with a diverse variety of cars. We had everything from E46 M3's, Z4M's, a few 335's, E60 M5's, and many E9x M3's. It was a clear day, but the day was filled with heartache as car after car produced about 10-15whp less than everybody expected. Even cars that had dyno'd before on the same dyno only a few weeks earlier seemed to be down 10-15whp. Many of these cars had already run baseline dyno's earlier, and were now back after getting tuned, or supercharged. For those people who dyno'd less than previously under the same configuration, their results are either omitted, or only entered as "Uncorrected" in the Dyno Database (this avoids confusion for creating multiple entries in the DynoDB for the same car and same configuration).
More than 24 cars signed up, but only thirteen showed up. We had two ESS VT1-535's, two M5's, two 335's, and one E9x M3 with the new Evolve ECU Tune (Hollywood Hogan).
The following results are a summary of results. In most cases, there are multiple graphs for each DynoDB entry. But clicking the "Graph" link below will only show one graph. To see the full results including charts, graphs, boost logs, and downloadable dyno files, click on the Dyno Database link.
It was a great time meeting everybody. We'll schedule another event soon so we can dyno all of the cars that missed out, or could not make it.
Individual Dyno Results:
Individual dyno results are shown below. SAE corrected results are shown twice, using two different sources. The first source (SAEd) are the SAE corrected results straight from the Dynojet. The second source (SAEk) of SAE corrected results are obtained by using the Kestral 4500 weather station data for each individual dyno run and running it through an independent SAE correction formula. This ensures that the dyno results are accurate and can be independently audited and verified for authenticity and accuracy.
The legend below has the following meaning:
- Dyno Run: Dyno run file
- Temp(F) = Temperature (Farenheit)
- RelH = Relative Humidity
- Pressure(Hg) = Barometric Pressure
- DA(ft) = Density Altitude
- WHP(unc) = UNC wheel horsepower
- WTQ(unc) = UNC wheel torque
- WHP(SAEd) = SAE Horsepower using Dynojet weather station.
- WTQ(SAEd) = SAE Torque using Dynojet weather station.
- WHP(SAEk) = SAE Horsepower using Kestrel 4500 weather station.
- WTQ(SAEk) = SAE Torque using Kestrel 4500 weather station.
