Dyno Mythology Explanation

I found this while researching definitions of terms for the Knowledge base glossary and thought a lot of you would find it very interesting. I for one never really understood how Dynometers work but now I do. Great read.

Cool article! I want to get my truck dynoed soon just to see what it puts down. And Bandimere just closed but when it opens again, I'm gonna be at the track seeing what it will do!

This Months Car Craft magazine ....or maybe it's Hot Rod ..... or Hot Rodding mag.....heck, I get so many car rags that I'm not really sure which one it's in ..... but anyway, it's an article about manipulating dynos to either increase the HP and TQ numbers or decrease them ..... stuff like tire pressure, tie-down strap tension, hood open/hood closed, all effect the numbers ..... it's also a pretty good read.

Dude ......that's a Scion forum ...... is there something you're not telling us? .... you've been representing yourself to us as masculine .... even posting pictures of manly Red Wing boots ..... but I'll be honest with you ..... now I'm wondering.

Since Mr.B is the expert on the Scion and I don't even know what it is. I would say that makes him the expert and me just nieve.
