Dynos are most useful for measuring deltas in power, not as a way to estimate crank power.
Wheel dynos are not the best devices on the planet to measure output, but dynojets with STD correction have proven to be relatively consistent. A stock F8X dynos around 400whp. A ZCP around 420whp. A CS around 430whp. A GTS around 470whp. BMW, like other european manufacturers, takes 8h to dyno a single car. It's done on an engine dyno (not in the car) and it's done in static conditions, not accelerating through a gear in 10 seconds. |

F80paul has tuned cars with a silo at spec which make over 700 whp ( supposedly) on US dyno’s . So tuning style etc isn’t an issue.
I’m trying to get to the bottom of rated power difference of cars with similar spec, running similar times |

My car (f80paul tune) Dyno-ed 510whp on a Mustang Dyno this week and just clocked 6.1s 100-200
https://www.bootmod3.net/log?id=5e7f...0b430c46472bc4 This was the actual log from the 6.1s run |

So. An anyone tell me why mustangs read lower than dynojet dynos?
And whilst the variance is so vast it seems with the figures, which ones to people think are true !? Curious |

even 100-200 which is a pretty accurate, can have many variables. same hp cars may still run diff timings depending on car weight, slight up/ down slope, shift points, torque curve, wheel weight etc. my own car has done 5.19s 100-200 on a different map with E85 and catless downpipes.

DIN and SAE testing standards are very similar, they however use a different horsepower unit (1hp DIN = 0.98632hp SAE), this is why DIN and SAE power ratings show slightly different numbers. Another important point is that an engine's power output will vary with acceleration rate. This is why most manufacturers test in steady state (constant RPM) because it yields more accurate and repeatable results. It is also important to realize that the test cells used by car manufacturers are multi-million dollar pieces of equipment and are therefore much more accurate and reliable than the relatively cheap dynos (dynojet, mustang, etc) found at local shops. Further, regarding correction factors, both DIN and SAE standards specify that NO correction factors should be used for engines that auto-correct for ambient conditions. Most modern forced induction engines, like the S55, can correct for ambient by adjusting boost targets, hence correcting the numbers further with correction factors falsifies the results. It's also important to point out that correction factors also have their limit and remain only relatively accurate for slight variations from the standard athmosphere. This is why SAE and DIN testing standards both specify that engines should be tested in conditions that are closest as possible to the standard atmosphere, regardless if correction factors are needed or not.

There are many other variables that come into play when installing and running a car on a chassis dyno. How tightly the car is strapped down, for example, will affect tire rolling losses. What gear is used also has an effect. Most manual and DCT transmission have a direct drive gear, when that gear is used, there is much less drivetrain loss compared to other gears (as much as 2-3% difference). Just to state a few...

However, gearing will have an INDIRECT effect on the power reading due to its impact on the various other factors: the effect on the effective mass of the powertrain inertia (the faster the powertrain is accelerated, the more power being consumed to accelerate the rotating mass), tire rolling losses varying with the cube of speed, engine power output varying with acceleration rate from tuning, and drivetrain loss being much lower if a direct drive gear is used.
