[QUOTE="TorqueTuning, post: 603205, member: 7155"] just sharing my view. it is very true and sad to say all dyno machine doesn't need a certification. example a ruler is a ruler but dyno got so many ways of getting the number out. errr...if you search more about Dastek dyno (carlsson's chart) it is impossible to be true. it is well known Dastek dyno is not really measuring power continuously but calculate a mathematic equation to 'fit' the hp/torque curve. that is why it is silky smooth as compare to the rest. Some people did a Type R Civic which is rated 200hp on flywheel but Dastek give 240hp. 'Happy figures' :-) for my personal experience, i dynoed my 198hp Tiguan on 4 wheel DynoDynamic and on-wheel only about 165hp. so about 16% loss which is reasonable for a AWD and non-DSG gearbox. a DSG gearbox usually < 10% loss. u dyno your ride with D mode and let it upshift? then your chart is very strange? where are all those dip when gear changing? seems like you are in a fix gear, no? fyi, Vector also has jumper for user setting but to me it is just a minor adjustment. some tuning box claim can do low, mid, high end setting which to me is just a 'selling point'. isn't is great if the tuning box can make full range improvement? maybe that is just me. for Vector it is fully digitized using AMTEL processor and will do internal switching by demand. also, Vector will not increase boost, therefore reliabilty of turbo is maintained.
