Freestyle Who wants actual dyno numbers?

[Billybo455]

so i'm seriously going to work on fitting a jet ski motor to a buddies engine dyno. my old wdk1200, polaris 800 i built, a 1.1 polaris are going to make it on the dyno if i can make it work safely. if it all works out, my goal would be getting some of the engine builders in on the same day for a comparison on the same dyno, during the same day. use the same coupler and how ever they sell their engine. i dont' think anyone will take me up on that offer though.

I'd fly down to see it!

That would be interesting for sure. Getting everyone involved may be difficult.

 

[Billybo455]

only difficult if you are afraid of the truth.

 

[tipafew]

Even if they think they make more power with their motors than the competition.......would they really be confident enough to put it on a dyno? I don't think so.

 

[Matt_E]

I personally think it would be the perfect environment. Same dyno setup for every motor there, builders get to supply the entire package - both of those points eliminate a lot of variables.
But I doubt anyone will go for it.
Marketing is working well enough, no reason to introduce actual numbers.

i already know what a wdk1200 will do on the dyno so lets see how these other motors compare!

 

[jetnut_118]

I know somebody with a dyno as well. And he saw some numbers that a certain company advertised and laughed. I think that the whole dyno idea is a great it would prove to a lot of people what makes the true powa.

ok and what it do ???

I'm excited to see how this turns into a crazy debate.

Did we really have to start another thread about the D word? I am certain to be banned by the end of the day now.

 

[WaveDemon]

I'm all for a real dyno test. maybe Gil's favorite punch line will finally die.

fixed it :swordfight:

I think it should be an event on Saturday at Daytona this year. Set it up.

 

[Schmidty721]

What kind of dyno is going to be used?
I think the only way to accurately test these engines is using an eddy current dyno on a 'timed sweep pass'.
Two strokes are too touchy to try and load with a water-brake or inertia dyno. Down low before they are 'on the pipe' the engine struggles to pull any load and as soon as it hits the meat of the power it screams to red line too quickly for accurate results.

Here we go again..........

120hp

120hp

And eme told my buddy his 1200 is 240 hp. Love to see that on a dyno.

Those numbers (EME) probably come from the original design work for cylinder & porting and the software's power estimates.

 

[smdubs]

Regardless of where they came from, I don't believe it. Or much anything else that comes from eme.
