I always thought it would be the other way around.Can some explain why this is?Has anyone ever put up a dyno sheet on here with a XR6t dyno'd in SHOOT 4 or SHOOT 4F?

I always thought it would be the other way around.Can some explain why this is?The car does not produce more power. Some dynos rely on the air intake probe sensor reading to give a atmoshperic correction factor, by placing this temp sensor in a hotter spot, the dyno will make a different correction factor.

( 4cyl Forced induction. turbo, supercharged or nitrous )3rd run was in SHOOT 6. ( N/A 6 Cyl )4th run was in SHOOT 6F. ( 6cyl Forced Induction. Turbo, Supercharged or Nitrous )5th run was in SHOOT 8. ( N/A 8cyl )6th run was in SHOOT 8F. ( 8cyl Forced Induction. Turbo, Supercharged or Nitrous)7th run was in SHOOT 6F showing what a higher intake temp will do to the power that the dyno thinks the car is making. this intake temp is probably a little unrealistic, but nonetheless, having a higher intake temp will trick the dyno into thinking the car is producing more power.And the last run I did was not done in any shootout mode, just normal ramp mode.

This is the very reason why dyno figures hold little water in the eyes of most serious racers. Only kids in bedrooms take them as gospel.Well done Bogan.
