These are GREAT examples of why we need to ALL stick to a DynoJet 248 when possible UNLESS you're strictly interested in getting a before/after for a particular mod or tuning, then use whatever suits your needs best.

You can locate DynoJet dyno facilities in your area here:

The best way to compare apples-to-apples between different NA cars is by getting it SAE corrected and using the SAME gear. Just remember to ALWAYS always take a disk with you and then submit the dyno runs here: http://forums.maxima.org/showthread.php?t=254595 following the SIMPLE format specified.

I think we have enough! LOL!

I'll add it to the Dyno Forum, since it will probably do more good there.

Thanks for posting this and I hope a lot of people read it. I wish it could be seen in every forum. I can't stess how important it is to dyno on the same machine and comparing your numbers to some other guys numbers on a different machine 7 states away means JACK CRAP!!!!! The Turbo Magazine Dyno of the 350Z is an excellent article and shows just how different dyno machines read. On the SAME 350Z, the SAME day, and no changes, the 350Z's HP power numbers differed by whopping 37hp between some machines. To some uninformed newbie, they would think the Z somehow magically gained 37hp by changing headlight fluid.

Excellent post.
