Dyno
We house a state of the art Dyno-Jet in ground, 248 chassis
dynamometer that can accurately measure 1200 rwhp and speeds
of 200 mph using the latest technology in electronic data
acquistion and practical engine function graphing techniques.
A chassis dyno, or dynamometer, to be precise is an automotive
tool designed to simulate a road in which an automobile is
driven. It’s main purpose is to provide a means in which
an automobile can be accelerated, cruised, and generally driven
while remaining stationary in the confines and safety of a
shop floor. A chassis dynamometer is used in this manner to
achieve several objectives ranging from performance tuning
to diagnostics. The chassis dynamometer employs a simple design
consisting of a roller mass specifically weighed to simulate
identical physics of a car being driven on a road and measurements
are taken through sensors attached to the roller and the vehicle
to evaluate performance. Message to web design: the following
categories are to be sub categories of the dyno. Safety, efficiency
and accuracy, baseline and successive testing, and diagnosis.

Safety
A technician can safely test and tune a car repetitively
without having to drive the car at unsafe and illegal speeds.
Many automotive performance tests consist of running the vehicle
at wide-open throttle and at high speeds. Even if a technician
has access to a test track and professional test driver, the
issue of safety still exists. Not to mention the wear on the
vehicles tires, brakes and suspension. Chassis dyno testing
however does not replace track testing of high performance
vehicles such as racecars. This is because many more variables
exist when a vehicle is driven around a track that simply
cannot be replicated in a chassis dynamometer. Chassis dyno
testing and tuning complements track testing. |

Efficiency and accuracy
A chassis dyno provides an automotive technician a platform
in which to repetitively test, evaluate and tune a vehicle
in a relatively short amount of time. Using the dyno's load
functions, a technician can tune a vehicle across the engines'
entire operating range and performance envelope. Modern chassis
dynamometers such as the Dynojet 248 operate with cutting
edge software technology to provide accurate, efficient and
repeatable testing. A dyno used in conjunction with current
electronic engine management systems and tuning software provides
a technician or enthusiast a complete toolkit to evaluate,
adjust, re-evaluate and perfect a vehicles tuning parameters. |

Baseline and successive testing
An automotive enthusiast wishing to improve vehicle performance
can use a chassis dyno to determine the vehicles baseline
performance before any modifications are made. After each
stage of modifications are performed, successive dyno tests
are conducted to evaluate and determine the effectiveness
of the modifications. A performance aftermarket vendor involved
in developing performance products should use a chassis dyno
to help test the products design and effectiveness in improving
performance.
Diagnosis
Certain symptoms of vehicular problems are many times exhibited
only when the vehicle is driven and only during specific speeds,
RPM, gear, etc. A chassis dyno can aid a repair technician
by simulating the same conditions in which the symptoms are
exhibited while the vehicle is driven on the street without
the safety and legal issues.
