My point was and still is you don't seem to understand why different types of dyno's give different WHP but the same engine power with there being nothing wrong.

but dynos measure wheel horsepower first then the bhp is calculated on the coast down when the clutch is quickly pressed in, wheel power is wheel power it should be the exact same every single time after all its whats put down on the road, and you keep putting up a link that don't work

As you rightly pointed out the engine power is calculated by deducting the coastdown from the power run, with this if you accept that the engine power is correct you by default must accept that the WHP is correct.

Frankie - You just fail to understand. As for Winsox - I've seen you floating about Castleford/Wakefield area Wondered who it was, as it's been noticed a few times <Mine's shiny and grey btw > As for some interesting reading on "Random Number Generators"... http://www.factorypro.com/dyno/Infla...horsepower.htm http://www.factorypro.com/dyno/true1.html It's a bit like the age old trick of some out there, that touch the brakes on the coast down to give an increased power.
