ECOTEC DYNO HELP
Monday, May 25, 2009 2:49 PM
So everyone else's car dyno'd just fine today except for mine. I don't know the exact problem but first of all they had to use dodge plug wires, mine weren't allowing them to get an rpm reading. Then I went for it and he said to let off because the dyno started beeping and said "limit exceeded". Obviously not because of the power, lol

Mines an ecotec with the supercharger kit, anyone other ecotec owners have problems???

Please help me!!

Ecotec does not have plug wires to start with. Did you do a dis cap coversion?

they usually hook it up to a wire going to the pack thing, but they never get an accurate RPM reading..

Some dyno shops can put a reflective sticker on your crank pulley and set up a litle thing kind of like a timing light to read the rpm. I have also seen it done where they hyave you hold the rpm steady at 2000rpm and thencalibrate the dyno that way. What options they have depend on what dyno they are using and what accesories they have for it.

Yep they ended up using the reflective sticker deal.....I don't know how accurate that actually is

Sticker tape is a very accurate way of doing it. The most inaccurate method is the wheel calibration.

EDIT: But both are generic ways of doing it and come in handy when you get in a pinch.

+1 on the accuracy. I'm pretty sure this is how they have to do it on a diesel.
