I just had my 2004 Z06 dyno'd today. It is completely stock and the results are what I expected - 349 RWHP, 345 Torque. However, there are 2 downward spikes at about 78 MPH & 90 MPH. Anybody have any ideas what caused that? Both pulls were almost identical and the spikes were at the exact same place.
And no jokes about it being done at a Dodge dealership.
Must of missed you today. Can't answer your question but I do have one for you. I had mine dyno'd as well. Did you see anything funny about the A/F curves for your two runs? My A/F curves dropped on the second run but the HP/TQ curves were dead nuts on. I'm wondering if their A/F setup is flakey.
If this dip in the torque curve was real, there should have been a corresponding dip in the horsepower curve.

Hi, I can tell you that the spikes are from the "Tachometer Probe" sample seeing a "higher" RPM spike momentarily. This is why the "X" axis is plotted on speed rather than RPM. Without a linear increase in RPM in your log you cannot plot against that. Since there is no change in the HP output there is not a problem with the vehicle. Only the data sample. This happens at times with all dynos and is a PITA.
