Tony,

Actually since I work with Excel most of the day at work anyway, you can send me all the files in whatever text format the Dynapack program spits out and I can import them into Excel. It's not very difficult. Just time consuming. You can tweak the Excel files afterward to get the chart to display data you find interesting.

Thanks,

Eldridge

 

"I work with Excel most of the day at work anyway"
Hehe... Yeah me too. PM me your adress and I can send you your files. But I don't think it will be so easy to open. They really arent in a familiar format. You'll see ... Try opening it up and its looks like a JPG file opened in note pad. Nothing but junk charecters. If you can somehow open them I'll send you the whole bunch of them.

When I can get the Dynapack viewer loaded into my computer I can then try to export it to Excel for real analysis. That's if it will even allow it. I would have tried this already but I have been working 12 hours days since the dyno day.

 

Tony,

I think there was a misunderstanding. I meant whatever character delineatedformat that Dynapack _viewer_ program (on the cd) exports to. Just so that you don't have to make all the individual runs into charts yourself using Excel. You can just tweak them afterwards.

 

heres more on my dyno if anyones interested

 

that's the thing eldy, they are not character delimited files.

 

I'm not talking about the actual files that the Dynapack program natively saves to! I'm sure it is able to export the files as a space delimited text file so that the data can be plotted using different programs. All the Excel charts I've seen aren't all just estimates from dyno printouts, are they?

 

Too busy working on the next performance mod!

Hey guys. Had fun hanging out. Nice to see the old faces and meet the new ones. I don't have my numbers in front of me but I think I did a ~278hp & ~257ftlb. Still trying to hit 280 Damn it! I think its possible to hit 280 on the right day. Dave O helped me locate a bit of a "ping" at ~6Krpm. So I'm going to install colder plugs.

Avo,
Hope you can find a way to post the vid you have....or maybe you can e-mail it to me.

 

with the help of areodyne and gurgen, i hope to figure out the boost spike and why the motor is running lean. it would be great to have another dyno event. i went to church's a few months ago and got a decent pull, but the engine was running too lean this time. i'll be there at the next meet to to see what the PE TT can produce. it was nice to meet some of the G family.

 

AHH MY RIMS! Those guys at church need some better sockets or more care when putting the rims back on! Can anyone PM me the number for those guys? Didnt notice it til i washed today..















edit: found their number on the dyno sheet, anyone know who was incharge at the day of the dyno? also both rears were damage and i have a bunch of dents in one of the lugs O.O

 

No, but I think that we may have basically gotte nthe wrong format output from Shawn, not the delimited one that Clint used to get.

No sweat George...we'll figure it out in no time. Just get the pump and call me, we'll do some tests and get to the bottom of it. A fuel pressure guage maybe a decent investment, but not necessary (as you won't use it much aside from tuning and mayeb monitoring it during track days where a loss of fuel pressure is more likely to occur during a WOT condition, which is more likely to go lean and blow the engine).

Ruben, I'd love to see your dyno data, maybe I could comment on smth. MOre of us should have been using mine or Dave's techtom unit to read the timing that the engine puts out.

 

gurgen,

yes, shawn gave us the files directly from the hard drive and provided tony a cd with a run viewer program. he did not export the dyno data into text files because he would have had to do over one hundred individual operations.

 

Gurgen,
When I get a chance I'll scan it in.

 

Gurgen... I went to Techno Square today (trying to even out my AFR and steady the timing, all is well now)... Brian said "hi" and "tell Gurgen I want my Techtom back".

Don't shoot the messenger I'm just realying what Brian asked.

 

Hehe, thanks for teh message... I know, I have been holding on to that thing forever now... I will see him, I am sure he was half-joking.
