The ultimate tuning and development tool - the Dynapack chassis dynamometer, capable of measuring 1,100hp and 220mph ground speed with critical engine data gathered for every single engine revolution.

 

Our dynamometer is the central hub of our tuning activity, allowing us to tune and develop with total accuracy and control. Dynapack is an internationally known and respected chassis dynamometer, owned and used by some of the largest names in the industry.

 

Power to achieve - The greatest strength of our dynamometer lay with its ability to rapidly prototype and develop power enhancing products, an established baseline power figure is measured and verified, and then used for reference as components are designed and tested on the car. We don’t believe in sensationalist power claims, instead we rely on hard facts, produced in a controlled and scientific manner by the most accurate equipment available.

 

Engine Management Calibration - As well as development purposes, our dynamometer is put to use for engine management system tuning - it is ideally equipped to perform this task with fast access to load control parameters to simulate various types of road and track conditions - while its internal super-fast and accurate laboratory grade air/fuel ratio meters ensure essential fuelling information is passed to the operator. We are able to map the vast majority of modern engine management systems from the most popular manufacturers, including HKS Fcon, MoTeC, Link, GEMS, Hondata, Emerald - to name only a few. We are also in a position to map a number of standard manufacturer management systems.

 

The Future - We are also using our dynamometer for alternative fuel research, including the use of E85 and hybrid electric power, to better our environment.

 

The Dynapack Advantage - Dynapack is different to a conventional “roller” based dynamometer. Its superb accuracy and repeatability comes from its method of coupling to the vehicle. Rather than the driven wheels turning a vast roller in the ground (or twin rollers in a metal assembly) via its tyres - Dynapack requires the wheels be removed and an adapter fitted to the vehicles hubs, which in turn allow the Dynapack to be attached to the vehicle in a totally secure manner. Unlike a “roller”, the car is quite literally fixed to the Dynamometer, instead of simply resting upon it. No wheel spin, no drama, just total consistency and control.

 

Precision Control - The direct mounting to the hubs brings the precision control levels of an engine dynamometer, yet with the convenience of a rolling road. Thanks to superbly engineered electro-hydraulic load control, engine speed can be controlled to the precision of a single RPM, while high speed data acquisition systems log all critical engine parameters for each single RPM point, vast amounts of data can be generated and analysed even from a single 15 second power run.

 

3D Diagrams Right: 3D diagram of the Dynapack system, red/black boxes are the Dynapack “pods”, one is connected to each driven hub of the vehicle. The green shaft represents the drive-line of vehicle being tested (Front or Rear wheel drive), Yellow is the power source, either Petrol or Diesel internal combustion engine, or modern hybrid electric motor. Dynapacks support the full weight of the vehicle once connected.
