evoscan dyno??

[galant1983]

how accurate is evoscan dyno??

[galant1983]

my car profile is:

factory weight-3400
driver-230
tire diameter-24.3
3rd gear ratio-1.407
final drive ratio-3.736
frontal area-?
wtd coefficient-0.95

not sure this is right

[galant1983]

i know some say they are not accurate and some say there close

Use Virtual Dyno instead

Matt the new evoscan 2.9 added/ build in virtual dyno to the code. I mean we could use ether one.

I would say for tuners or more advance user with evoscan could use 2.9

For people less advance that just want to see hp virtual numbers could use the stand alone Virtual Dyno.

[galant1983]

well i ran it again on the 2.8v with 2 diff logs and it said 224hp and 254tq.but when i use the 2.9 its between 50hp and 328hp

Umm stock. I dont know about that. You need to be 100% accurate with the settings on evoscan. Gear ratio and the weigh even the wind dynamic could affect the readings. So double check your numbers and try again.

haha im sure those are not the hp numbers lol

Check club3g and see their v6 settings. Just add a few pounds more since the g is heavier than the eclipse.

Yea I know about the EvoScan dyno, everybody who bought the software gets emails for the software updates.

With what we have been doing for tuning, and comparison to the actual dyno numbers of the tuned vehicles, Virtual Dyno has been more accurate with less hassle and is much easier to use since they keep adding more vehicles to that database with everything already set in place.


You can use either one, we just prefer the Virtual Dyno for the power graph information rather than the datalogging software's version

i posted the setting you need for a 5speed v6 galant over on GT

but here they are for the 5speed 4 and 6 galants

i thought this might help some people with accurate readings on VD. Just copy this into notepad and you can change what you need but leave the format, gear ratios, drag coefficient, and frontal area. be sure to add .xml to the file name when saving. and note that if you update the program it will erase the file so back it up and copy into the new folder after updating.

[EvoScan]

I'm assuming SPD_FRK hasn't actually used the new EvoScan v2.9 Virtual Dyno based on his comments. He is probably basing it on an EvoScan version <=2.8 from 14 months ago, it was terrible, I must admit, lol.

EvoScan v2.9 was rewritten from the ground up. and it had over 100 sample dyno charts checked for accuracy during beta testing. As for easiness, EvoScan is 10 times easier, because you don't have to open notepad or excel, delete rows, open another program, drag, drop.. thats not very easy, nor convenient. EvoScan will graph power/torque in realtime during logging, even across multiple runs (i.e. slow down and go again, EvoScan will log two seperate power runs automatically based on TPS), without having to chop up any log files into separate files or anything.

Thanks underated, I'll add those to the next auto update for EvoScan v2.9.0020
