That talking dyno must not have to pay to maintain that engine.

If your car is only using 1350 HP out of 1500? HP, then that should suggest that your wasting 150 HP somewhere?
(need to listen to the car now? )



What weather data did you use in that calculator?

Or it doesn't make 1500hp. I used the actual weather conditions at the time of the et achieved.

What it does say is the guy looking at the sheet knows the rpm spread based on his trans ratios, maximizes area under the hp curve based on rpm range defined by the trans ratios and knows how much power the car will take on the hit. He also does a timing swing after fixing the the fuel curve to optimize timing vs rpm. The Dyno sheet interpreter knows what he's doing.
