all of this agreed ..... however its not the number hitting the ground. as he said there are still variables that the hub dyno removes but come into play when actually driving. A roller will give you a better idea of what is actually hitting the road and drivability. a hub is better for the engine side removing these variables as you dial in the motor, boost , timing,(ect). most ideal shop would have both.(dreamland)

I always find it hilarious when people "convert" between dyno brands. "Oh I got 400 whp on this mustang dyno so that's 460 whp on a dynojet" like that's just not how any of this works. Solid explanation on the benefits of a hub dyno. Limit the variables to get consistent and repeatable measurements to make changes from

These are excellent videos, I really like this type of content.

I learned a few things from this video I never thought of before 👍🏻

Thanks for this video it's something I've been thinking about a bit lately after seeing Cleveland exhaust go from roller to hub.

Great explanation on the differences between the roller and hub systems. Think we need to get rid of our DynoJet AWD for a MainLine hub machine.

Very true about the wheel n tire affecting power 4agehilux did a great vid on this and strapping different ways, is also glorious external waste gate noises

Interesting power output on the Porsche bro, what's you plans on upgrades to get it to reasonable numbers?

very cool information that like someone below mentioned - i'd not even thought of or considered previously. more critical info to think about before buying one.

Like I said many times, they are not a power figure machine, it is tuning equipment. 1/4 mile is where you know your true power.

Excellent video! 🤙

Really good information!

I noticed this on my daily. Subaru Impreza RX 1996 Ej18 NA. I had 15" small wheels and tires then upgraded to 17" wheels and tires and it was noticeably slower..

If a roller dyno is calibrated so that power and torque cross at the correct rpm, and drive train losses are accounted for with a coast down test, then how big a gap will there be to a hub dyno?

call me stupid but what I got from this is that hub dyno gives you increased HP reading for obvious reasons but looks like more reliable tune set up for different variations?

I'm honestly surprised it's taken so long for hub dyno's to become popular.

well isn’t the hub dyno basically just a dyno queen sheet? Sure you’ll make a higher number since it’s mounted straight to the car, why remove the wheels? When on the street obviously you run with tires.

@HardstylePete

​@@DEATHWISHVQbecause you can't tune high power engines if the tyres are constantly slipping on a roller dyno.

So hub is alot more accurate for your total power potential and tuning but you are going to lose that 30 to 50 hp when rims n tyres are back on and out on the road ?

So Dynos are used for testing and tuning cars then getting a ball park power figure. Oh I thought they were for car guys to flex haha

One day people will understand that a dyno is not for measuring outright power, it is comparative tuning tool that allows you to make changes and compare the results, while monitoring af ratios, temps etc. And not crash or get arrested doing it on the street. Even engine dynos read different from day to day due to changes in weather... So it seems that a hub dyno gives more consistent figures for tuning high hp cars, while roller dynos are fine for most road going vehicles as long as rules are adhered to for consistency.

This is important information.

Never forget my mate who asked for a 300rwkw tune on his xr6 turbo - the print out literally said 301rwkw - but the car was slow as batshit.. well not slow, but not 50rwkw faster than my 250rwkw calais, or another mates 270rwkw SS. Tuning tool.

not sure how i feel about any dyno to be honest easy to say it made x of hp on either , on one veriables come from tie down and rubber and so on , and on the other you remove all those , but what happens when it hit real road is a whole other thing because you added all the veriables back to the car ..plus some (wind ,air volume ,temp.) .. the only real number is time on a track or 1/4, or whatever you fancy

My only gripe with roller dynos at some shops is its inability to load up the engine properly. Got my car tuned by a popular honda race shop with a dynojet. Made 635whp. Motor didnt last 2 days on the street. Come to find out, their dyno wasnt loading up the engine anywhere near enough for the weight and torque of the car.

Not to mention rolling resistance, the harder you strap it down to keep it from slipping the more rolling resistance you create sapping power.

It would have been a nice comparison to throw that Porsche back on the roller Dyno with a different wheel size and weight.

Not being a smartass but if you squish the tyre for example, the outside diameter should be theoretically the same. If that doesn't change that means the circumference doesn't change either. That means the Rolling radius is the same. So the only real problem is torsional slip. I thought dyno used the equation of torque to HP/KW conversation? So how does this smp/s effect the final number?

@tx5brent

4 жыл бұрын

If you squish the tyre the roller becomes closer to the axle, thus changing the lever arm, but I do understand what you mean about the circumference of the tyre. Not sure how that works

Roller is more realistic for what sticks to the road bhp, hub dyno good for tuning through the drive train, the highest hp number is the engine dyno, but for me after tuning it roller is the true number tyre slip, roll, camber is what happens on the track or road! (real world)

So basically the roller dyno is wheel horsepower minus traction (WHP-T) The hub dyno is drivetrain horsepower (DHP)

Joseph Andreuccetti don’t need street if you have a good dyno cell and hub dyno

Yeah, right... Nice talk, about dyno which doesn't measure power loss after run.

I don’t know shit about the exact science behind it but my car on the roller spun up 505rwkw on 20x11.5 rears and then 15min later spun up 580rwkw on the hub dyno at the same shop.

Centrifigual mass is the thing.A wheel is a big flywheel and the more centrifigual mass, eg heavier tyres means it uses more power to accelerate and also stop. Many 'bling' wheels and tyres cost power, stopping and suspension. And to me look stupid as well. A wheel that weighs 15lbs for instance and the rim is very heavy V a lighter rim and heavier centre will make a fair difference. So a 14" rim will have less centrifigual mass than a 20" with the same diameter tyre. And usually a 20" tyre will be faaaaaaar heavier than the same dia in 14" The peak power howeve will be the same or even a fraction more as the flywheel once accelerated will help maintain power. The hub dyno at least equalises all of these figures. And yes different dynos give different numbers. I have done an E85 conversion and made less numbers on a different dyno.

Then after that we go out for a road tune to set the car up properly dyno's only get it close and give a number, road tune makes it drivable.

Rolling radius won't change from squash the steel belt in the tyre won't get shorter it's like tracks just because it's lower don't make it shorter but you will loose power through side wall flex Wich will show as heat in the side wall

Folks, its just like you were taught in science lab. You want your methods to be the same each time. Otherwise the data can be skewed and you can't make comparisons. The hub dyno eliminates some variables and operator error compared to the roller.

I hate the whole my dyno makes more power thing. The hub dyno helps with consistency for the sake of tuning, that's it. That 30hp you "gained" by going to the hub is useless once the wheel goes back on. the 1/4mile tells all thing is irrelevant aswell. Tire traction, clutch slip/converter slip, gear ratios and driver can change 1/4 mile time drastically without actually "losing" or "gaining" power. I've seen a 4300lb car make 400whp and run 12.9s, watched the same car the next run do 15.0 because of traction . Some due to improper launch and some the tires being too cold.

@dickn0se

4 жыл бұрын

The 1/4 time is not a good measure of power. But the trap speed is! The time is greatly affected by launch, but the trap speed is not. Those 12.9 and 15.0 runs - the trap speed would not be very different between them.

I have a feeling the loss is due to extra friction in the roller bearings (from the high side-loading due to strapping the car down so much)... rather than the inertia of the wheels and tyres. And it’s more likely to be the parasitic drag of the wheels n tires...rather than “inertia”, that’s robbing power.

hardened steel bearings (as long as they're not overloaded) will not appreciably affect friction in the kW range. If you put multiple kW of heat into a steel roller bearing it's fail very quickly.

The car is gonna be raced with wheels & tires on it right? So if it makes 300 on a hub dyno then 250 on a roller dyno, you tell everyone 300, then it performs like a 250hp car with the wheels and tires on it, wouldn’t that be disappointing? I feel like you would want to tune with a hub dyno and then use a roller to get the number you actually tell people.

828drifter the whole point of the video was to make people understand the difference to interpret it better Many American and British dynos try to calculate engine Hp and give really high numbers. We’ve seen some drum inertia dynos in the USA make more “wheel horsepower” than the car is rated to at the engine. So rally the power means nothing as every dyno is different. If you understand that you stop caring and understood it’s a tool for tuning. Rea world performance numbers are what matter.

@@emmanuelmeris5841 The ultimate solution is to dyno straight from the driveshaft, but that's obviously too impractical most of the time. Hence, the next best things is a hub dyno that rigidly links the hub to the dyno to eliminate all tyre compliance and slippage. You still have to deal with drivetrain lossess, but it's still infinitely better than having tyre slip mess with your measurements. Of course, atmospheric conditions will always be an issue unless you somehow have a climate controlled chamber with no lack of airflow. Short of a wind tunnel, rollers and other means to full to fool the car into believing it's actually moving, it's also nigh impossible to fully account for variables such as how modern cars are smart enough to completely turn off the radiator fan when the car is running fast enough to be better off with no radiator fan running.
