I just took my pushbike to a dyno and got 256rwkw! I put the oxy torch on the air temp sensor!
The dyno debate is unlikely to die off any time soon for sure. Sure different dynos on different days will give different readings, but hey, who cares? I mean noone really gets too worried that on different days you can pull better/worse times on the drag strip. If there is going to be a dyno readings thread, I think the secret would be for everyone to not treat it as a d#ck size comparing comp, but a place to share results from improvements, then it could be great - especially if people could post before and after dyno readings. Since this forum is a pretty social kind of place normally I think there is a chance it could work.
I agree, hence my previous comment re making comparisons. But the before/after mods idea is even better! That way you're only comparing with yourself and are unlikely to start an argument.
L18_B110,
Maybe you should lighten up mate. Surely you can see both points of view, you are not compressing the atmosphere on the way in, you are simply adding something to it. If you had a nitrous tank that stored it under atmospheric pressure and used a carby to suck it into the engine, which is entirely possible (if unwieldy), the effect is the same except its not being injected under pressure.
As people have said, both NOS and FI are classes as power-adders, I don't think anyone says that NOS is FI though.
