Dynos and Horsepower
Hey guys... I've always wondered about getting a car dyno'd. I have unanswered questions in my head like "How much would it cost to have it done?", "Where can I get it done?", "What kind of power do the vehicles I drive actually put out?" things like that... Can anyone help me out? Another thing on my mind recently is where Horsepower specs from manufacturers are measured from. My current understanding is that most North American manufacturers measure power from the crank rather than the wheels to give higher readings, and imports do the opposite... Is this true? Because I know theres a big difference between bhp and hp. It seems all I do is ask questions on this board... but o well... u dont ask, u'll never know! pce.
