What better test than to put the MagicMotorsport DynoRoad portable dyno head to head against our £250k purpose built cell and Dyno Dynamics Dyno.
We were very surprised by the results!
The previous runs logged by the device were without the accurate weight measurement and with Tom driving. The first run I did with accurate weight is what you see filmed here, no trial run for me, no tricks.

@waynewilliamson5719 3 года назад

Can't quite believe how accurate it was. The manufacturing and technology in a modern rolling road is far higher than alot of people think. The fact they have seemingly crammed alloy of that in to a small device like that and an intelligent app is mind blowing. Also to be so close they must have rigerously tested it, something I think is rare in the tuning products age these days.

@bennyb.1742 3 года назад

It's a spin off of bicycle power meters Nearly the exact same technology (calibrated strain gauge) and works the same. I'm a recently retired pro cyclist and for the last 5 or so years it has basically been mandatory to put one of these on your bike for racing. You figure out what your sustainable power is and cruise at that power level so you don't burn out before its time to attack. I always wondered if you could do the same thing for a car/motorcycle and I guess you can! It seems crazy but its a pretty well established thing, and the cycling ones are usually accurate within +/- 2 watts (1/373th of a HP)

@TC-V8 3 года назад

@@bennyb.1742 Note sure it would use a strain gauge? It is told the wheel dia & the vehicle mass - it will calculate the rear ratio from the 3000rpm calibration run, and it can measure the change in velocity over time. Then just simple physics - force = mass x acceleration.

In theory, it's really easy to do - just move the car instead of drums on the dyno (rejecting air resistance by assuming you're not testing a Mac truck).

It does have a purpose, though maybe not so much here in the UK. Some cars are configured for different altitudes and climates as these environments can alter the air/fuel mix. I didn't even know this was a thing until the other day when I watched a video on mapping and modding cars in a desert mountain road environment. Apparently the low air pressure, high altitude, dry air and heat can sap all power out of a car unless it's built to take that into consideration.

@DarksideDevelopments 3 года назад

I'm not completely sold since I haven't seen the item promoted in the US. What I have seen is basically a $10.00 cell phone program that is advertised to basically do the same thing. I'm even more skeptical, but my potential loss if it doesn't work is $10.00. I'm guessing it determines time and vehicle motion instead of actual wheel speed.

It would take datalogs from my car, I put in the weight, coefficient of drag, tire size, gear ratio, etc into the program, stuff in my datalog, and as long as my log is clean, and I used a good flat road, I was able to get pretty accurate dyno charts that were within a few hp of what an actual dyno rated my car it's all about putting in good data. Good data in > Good data out. This device looks to do a LOT of the more difficult numbers (like the drag of the car) so you just enter in the more basic and easier to find info to get a good chart out.

@@Nbomber the unit likely relies on accelerometers to calculate power, unlike automotive engineering grade telemetry products using strain gages capturing shear strains on the axle. For an uphill measurement the engine power will be converted into potential energy during the climb, and their unit will read low. On a downhill measurement, the conversion of potential energy of the vehicle mass will be converted into kinetic energy and the unit will read high. I agree there likely are correction factors in their iPhone app applied which approximate drag losses and rolling resistance losses. However, as it’s an inertial based unit, likely beginning a test at 10mph will yield different results than 100mph. If this unit has cracked some new technology that the major automotive measurement companies (AVL, HBM, FEV, Kistler, Datron, etc), they could sell it and make millions. It would be great if this new company found a new novel technology, however looks like a G-TechPro performance meter. Also, this unit it not directly measuring power, but rather calculates power from velocity, acceleration and inertia equations and smoothing filters.

@@DarksideDevelopments Wow, wasn't expecting a reply! :) I was only talking about the speed but I don't mind and that was obviously all from when you tested it on the track :) Btw thank you for the love for 1.6 I enjoy watching videos related to that engine dreaming of mine making 250hp+!

Anything over 60 is done at the track of course!

I want an app where I hook my phone to the wheel. It’s got accelerometers right?

How can the HP and torque curves not cross at 5252 RPM? I thought that was a mathematical certainty.

Interesting. Our system goes on drive or harf shafts. Not cheap either though

Although ours gives a live realtime readout of engine (not wheel) torque at all times.
