I've been to Gillette a time or two to do some dyno testing. Haven't dyno'd much myself but from what I've seen, it's a pretty tough dyno to make horsepower on, but thats relative really... It tells you if your going the right direction or not with your tunage. Then hit a dynojet when you wanna make big HP claims i guess ;)

And then a SuperFlow when you want the real numbers;):baby:

Id say start with some base line numbers then make more pulls on SAME dyno and relatively same conditions.


I think most dyno #'s don't mean shit.
