Default Which dynamometer?

What dynamometer do you use to tune, and get you rwhp/tq on? Which one is the best one out there to tune on?

I have tried the DynoJet and a Dyno Dynamics.

Thanks,

AZC5

I have used both DynoJet and Mustang dyno's.I like DynoJet dyno's because the numbers are a little higher and it makes me feel better about the work I did. Seriously, you can get good results on any dyno used for tuning. They are a tool and a good tool in the hands of a good tuner will get you good results. :thumbs:

It realy doesn't matter. As long as you use the same one before and after the mods if you're using the dyno as a comparative tool. I think the Dynojet will read closer to the actual "factory" numbers. :thumbs:
