Engine Dyno in the UK
- Thread starter PDub
- Start date
I have heard of a Progress Engineering at Maidstone.
This is not a recommendation as I haven't used them myself though I would like to once I am happy with the running.
My own feeling is that its easier and more representative of true performance to put the car on a rolling road once its mobile. If you want to know the raw output figure (at the flywheel) then obviously you need to go the dyno route.

I can't remember if Real Steel have one. They're over Heathrow way.
Oh and congrats on getting the kit.

Buddy of mine jsut gave me one of these for my birthday, and I find it very accurate with resepct to rear wheel figures I've pulled from a dyno (Lotus).
GTech Pro
Neat package that has been shown to easily be within a few percent of actual figures. Best mode of operation is to establish a base line and then you can see the effects of any changes. Much better and more accurate than their older unit.

Real Steel don't have a dyno but they've recommended a company called GRL Motors in Woking Surrey (01483 725759)
who'll I'll be using Very shortly (hopefully).
Give Real Steel a call on 01895 440505 I'm sure they'll be able to help

Hi Guys, like JP I heartily recommend Peter Knight Racing, wouldn't use anyone else ! Frank
There are a number of places out there (I used a rolling road at Sigma Engineering in Gillingham, Dorset) but whoever you use, make sure they have knowledge of your induction system. If you have a holley carb make sure they know holley's and have the spare jets etc to hand. If injection make sure they understand injection etc etc. You don't want to waste time on an expensive dyno. Sigma were good with Holley's.
