Dyno

Putting car on the dyno on Friday but it's gonna be 100 degrees outside that day. Will the weather effect my dyno numbers? Thanks

Most likely. Elevated intake temps will make the ecu pull some timing.

Yes, in theory the higher the temp and humidity the lower the numbers. Dont worry about it, and if you are then throw it on the dyno in the fall/winter for glamour numbers.

I knew you were in charlotte before I opened the thread because you said it was 100 out. Where are you going for dyno?

In a word, yes.

But, if you really have to know right now, then get there about an hour early.
Put fans in the engine bay, not just blowing on the nose, otherwise it's sitting there baking in convective heat.


When it's time to do the pulls make sure you don't sit around letting it idle. Just get it up to temp, if it's a manual, do a couple of quick hits to 3/4 throttle in 2nd and 3rd to warm the clutch....get it set and let it rip.

Don't ever pay for dyno time and not get a datalog. Ever.
