Why not? You have a controlled reference (stock dyno w/reasonable shape) on a linear scale.

Why would you trust a dyno thats appears so shoddy. Did you trust the Toda dyno for the cams? Did the actual real life dyno appear ANYTHING like it? No. If a company such as Vortech releases a dyno that looks like it was copied by a 3 year old with a crayon
No-- I thought someone might get confused by that. You cannot apply a universal 20hp or 25% to ALL mustang dyno measurements to get the dynojet-corrected measurement. That's why you see "universal." Of couse there exists an exact correlation between two systems of measurement.

In this specific case, you can say an exact % increase is required, because it is a linear scale, and you have a common reference.

The numbers and curves are not doctored. It is not a random scale. It is a scale from a loading dyno that people don't understand.

Man, I mixed the SC torque line up for the NA HP line. I'm stupid.

I just took the percentage increase at every 500 RPM's from base to SC'ed and applied it to my own Base dyno.

Example at 7000 RPM they saw a 32% increase in HP so I applied that same 32% to my Dyno and came up with X HP increase.

Some one tell me if this wont work so I dont waste time doing the torque Numbers.

I will post the spreadsheet if anybody is interested.

My calc only put me at 301 peak HP off of a 204 base.

I agree it would make sense, and that would be awesome, but like I was saying, the fact that such a large and reputable company would even use such a dyno just reeks of stupidity (From a marketing standpoint).

I have to agree while the dyno is harder to apply to the #'s we are used to using the info needed is still there. The percent increase is all that is really important. This dyno is more than enough to put me at ease with my purchase. Now if the things would ship I would be a happy camper.
