Re: SVX on dyno

Sounds about right as there are huge losses in any AWD/4 wheel drive system.
My GMC truck was well over 300 engine horsepower and only had 210 HP at the rear wheels.

Re: SVX on dyno

That does not sound right... 47% drivetrain loss? I have never seen that much loss on an SVX. When I benchmarked my SVX's (with the 4EAT) I was right around 150awhp.

Re: SVX on dyno

Mustang dyno for me... Which makes sense as my numbers give me about a 35% drivetrain loss and Bishop using a Dynojet experienced a 22% drivetrain loss. The average difference between Dynojet and Mustang dynos is in the range of 12% with Mustangs reading lower.

Re: SVX on dyno

I've got video from my 5MT SVX on the dyno somewhere.... Let me see if I can find it... It was NEARLY 10 years ago so apoligies if I don't have it anymore... But I'll look

Re: SVX on dyno

Definitely sounds like a heartbreaker dyno for sure.

Dsport magazine did an issue a while back comparing different dynos with two cars to compare what the differences actually were.
