Automatic transmissions make dyno results hard to read as there is no ‘solid’ connection to the wheels like found in a manual transmission. Larger diameter tyres not only drastically effect fuel economy but also absorb power. There are many variables in the way a dyno calculates power and there are further variables such as tyre size and transmission type. Simply put to make figures comparative, given that the manufacturer only offers crankshaft power and DPCHIP measure only power at the wheels, DPCHIP have calculated wheel power back to a ‘comparative’ crankshaft power.īe sure you don’t confuse the figures you see here with what you achieve on a dyno. The engine power specifications listed here by DPCHIP are ‘converted or calculated’ figures and are to be used as a guide to the power gains you will get from installing a DPCHIP. These ‘Claimed’ manufacturers’ specifications are never checked or questioned by any Government authority or Independent group. Advertised STANDARD Power of 147kW yet the vehicle only achieves 105kW at the wheels on a dyno.įACT: - ALL ‘Claimed’ manufacturers engine power specifications are measured at the engines crankshaft.
