Thread: First Time On the Dyno

Something is not right. The horsepower and torque should ALWAYS cross at 5,252 no matter what. Torque can be measured, but Horsepower is calculated with Torque and RPM. The formula for Horsepower is torque X RPM/5252. Not really understanding what was done, but it seems the numbers are skewed.

edit: the second graph looks correct.

I argued this with some experienced guys... technically correct but it doesn't always show up exactly on the dyno sheet that way. Strange but true.
