Lets play top trumps

Raised -lowboy 4WD dyno for 'under car cooling' to protect other components like gearboxes and diffs

We have a dedicated dyno cell with the high CFM rate in europe with 4 meter span fan.

We have a big car park area too so it could be a met at the same time bring the whole family

I don't deny it sounds very tempting but its a 320 mile round trip for me to be disappointed at the true output from my car

I'm sure theres a few daaan saaaf who'll take you up on it though

We haven't had a Dyno day for a while.

I was thinking the same, last S2000 one must have been in 2005.

There you go Steven sounds like you need to organize one.

Me personally I hate dyno's, always leave feeling low powered.

Stick my name down if you do do one.

Richard, its an interesting point.

Dyno Dynamics are extremely good, but not all are the same.

The size of the fan and the extraction can make a MASSIVE difference in the result - I know this 1st hand. I had 80 bhp go missing on my Evo from setup differences....

Honda's are pretty sensitive on a dyno, they need a lot of cooling so you can get iffy results due to huge amounts of timing being pulled.
