Hence why I think the before/after plot is far more interesting than a straight plot. The delta is what you experience!
ahhh, but that's kinda the issue. The DJHP numbers actually skew at a greater percentage as the BHP goes up. So they don't maintain a constant value against true bhp but actually the delta starts climbing away.
And i recently discovered a problem with the way DJ dynos measure and map using the sweep method that resulted in me ditching the pcv as the dyno tune was actually way off what the motor needed in the real world. .....

See other thread...

Anyway, dynos are fun. Who's ever not had a good time on a dyno day! (cue picture of bikes blowing up...) They are a good referential for you and your mates on the same day to willy wave at each other. Or use as a beating stick to the tuner for not giving you the results they promised...

Ade, my issue isn't with Dyno's per se, rather the DynoJet dyno and he sweep test method of testing. As for using it as a stick against a tuner who's not delivered, I would suspect the opposite is more likely, where a canny operator can demonstrate mythical HP that he's not actually delivered.
You wouldn't be so forgiving if supermarkets sold you a kilo or a litre of anything that was actually 750 whatevers.

Here's one of mine... 1993 Ducati 888, already had K&N air filter and SP cans before it got a power commander and custom map. Wasn't that bothered about the top end increase, the work made the bike smoother and easier to ride at lower speeds which is what I wanted..

If you can't " beat them" .....
2009 Aprilia RSV4, standard and then with AR link pipe and end can, BMC filter....pretty poor numbers in some peoples' money, but as much discussed , one of the best riding experiences you can have,remember , a big axe sometimes needs a very big room to swing it in .......

Ps : Dynojet....

Before; Triumph Off Road pipes with Cat delete
After; 3 into one.

Dyno may be a little optimistic methinks.

Yeah, I've had it on another dyno and reckon it's nearer 250BHP. I've got to iron out a few issues with the tune at the mo, hoping to get it sorted before the winter ends. It's not going anywhere in these temperatures.

A mate over from IOM getting KTM Superduke R 1290 set up to Austin Racing end can on Powertech (Poulton, Fylde) dyno to smooth it out and reduce risk of lean running yesterday, the single loudest bike I have ever been in a confined space with on full throttle . Manufacturer's figures are 180+ peak for these, Jason ( well experienced ) guessed at a true possible 155... It is 157 at the rear.
His play tool of choice for Cartagena. I shall be in the next door garage......
Edit: apologies - he didn't bother getting graph printed off so can't post , as the number wasn't the object of the exercise....
