Hi everyone

I got one simple question to ask and here it is. Do you think I will feel the diffrence in my "butt dyno" after shaving off 80 to 90 lbs off my S. Need to know asap to keep my project going.

thanks people

 

No idea but weight loss is always good. Cant hurt to try

 

100 is equvilant to 1/10 of a second

 

How would weight affect a dyno? It's testing only engine power.

 

Here's what I would try

Add 80-90 pounds (ex using cast iron disks from a free weight set) and see if you can feel a difference.

That should give you a hint as to whether losing 80-90 pounds will matter to you.

I suspect people differ in their sensitivities to changes in their cars, just as people vary in their sensitivites to pain, noise, smells, temperature and other factors

i would think that drivin' with a passenger would be a little bit like this...

 

eh. i dont feel like driving with a passenger really changes anything. its when your driving with passengerS that it makes a difference. but definitely if you're going to track your car, every lb counts.

 

I like Mr. Shelby's comment "To add more speed add less weight!" I once asked a tuner what was the cheapest way I could get more power and speed out of my car. He said "Go on a diet!"

Thanks,
Richard

 

I hope you don't think a "Butt Dyno" is an actual machine that measures horsepower.

 

I notice 90 lbs easily. I shaved off 210 pounds at one point and it was very noticeable.
