Default Dyno Speed???

just curious as to about what speed i would be making peak power on a dyno?? wont be running with the wade 1004 though.

coz im due to get it dyno'd next month and without a speedo adjuster, i cant take my car past 140km/h, coz it thinks it doin 180km/h and hits the limiter. this was due to a diff ratio change.

cant change ECU coz i have a chiptorque chip i wana keep. im hoping 140 km/h is fast enough to get a peek power result on the dyno for my car coz i dont wana have to stuff around with one of those jaycar converter thingys.

to get a reading, it does not matter what your road speed is (unless it exceeds the speed of the dyno), the dyno operator should be dynoing it in a gear which is 1:1 (3rd gear in a 3 or 4 speed auto), as long as the motor revs to it's power limit , which if it is hitting it's limiter it is, you should get an accurate reading

You will hit the limiter.

Put the car in 4th, and see how fast you're going at the redline.

Run it in 2nd, most E-Series are dyno-ed in 2nd.

ha with a high stall an the limiter at 140 you shouldnt even bother taking it on the dyno... _2: i reckon your peak will be higher than 140 still.
Gee ud think thatd hurt going down the strip havin to change into 4th so early too, ah well good luck

maybe john you will have to find a bit of h/way that you can get in 3rd gear and plant it till it will go no more.. if the rev limiter cuts in first then you will have problems if it revs and revs and you just have to change gears then you will be right
3rd gear in mine was about 130km in my white car at peak power
