DynoJet vs Mustang Dynamometer

[mark.gomez]

I had a chance to dyno my 2001 Z06 on both a Dyno-Jet and a Mustang Dynamometer...I did not make any changes to the car and readings were taken 2 weeks apart....

Mustang = 333.3HP/333.6 Torque
Dyno-Jet = 346.4HP/346.4 Torque

Guess the facts speak for themselves...

Hey Mark, You like the looks of dyno jet more better? Peter told us that the numbers would be lower on the Mustang than the other dynos, because the Mustang is made primarily for the big horse power cars, I guess your recent number back up what he said. What would that put mine at about 377 then, it certainly looks better when posting #s!!

Ted...

Wonder if we can say the "rule of thumb" between the Mustang and Dyno Jet = 3.5%"

Cal; Leo; Andy G; Rick T were there.......was a pretty good deal.....$50 for 3 pulls.

[Kens06]

Pretty good deal, I guess
I get 3 for $125 :eek: :eek:
I got my numbers from a dyno-jet

I dynoed 355 on a Mustang with longtubes and a Blackwing after tuning. I'm thinking 370 on a dynojet would be possible.

I also looked at my numbers against a 2002....the 2002 ended up around 20hp more and the separation in the graphs happened around 4500rpm....so, up to 4500rpm...there is almost no difference between the 2001 and 2002....but after 4500 rpm...the 2002 starts leading!

Which is exactly what it should be

That's interesting. I have seen other comparisons and the mustang dyno seemed to report about 10rwhp higher than the dyno jet. I have always used the same dyno so as to get a good idea of the delta between mods. Hopefully we will get some others that have done runs on both and see what they have observed.

CalJr. had his car dyno'd on both the Mustang and Dyno Jet as well. His results were similar to mine. Dyno-Jet being higher than the Mustang. As Ted implied....the Mustang is probably set up for higher HP.....meaning it may not be as linear at the lower HP?

FWIW That was a Mustang 1750 that we were on, I don't the different sizes, as that it the first one I was ever around.

That's all that really counts -

That is exactly what I do....I always use that same dyno and dyno operator.

Mark, I am not doubting the validity of the results that you guys had. It's certainly good information to hear from others about such trials. I recall there had been a discussion about the 2 types of dynos. Personally, the important item is using the same dyno to get a good idea of the delta of the mods that you add. Then you don't have to be concerned with how one dyno model reports versus another model.
My current numbers, 385+ rwhp & 392 rwt, and the deltas along the mod progression are all from the same mustang dyno. My stock numbers were 335rwhp and 335 rwt.
My plan is to have my computer programmed this week, hopefully picking up another 15+ rwhp. I will also do a few dyno runs at the same time to report the new numbers. I am hoping for that 400+ rwhp with just bolt-ons.

Have a great day folks!

Tom...

Your numbers are almost totally opposite of mine with the Mustang being higher. I guess the discrepancy ends up being how the dyno is calibrated!
