    Great stuff again. Never apologize for trying to do things properly. It's your shop, and it obviously has a great reputation, you must be doing something right. Just keep doing what you are.

    Well done lad, enjoying that. It&apos;s a real workshop not a &quot;reality show&quot;. Best summation of the usefulness and limitations of a dyno I&apos;ve ever heard.

    Ricky, a brilliant explanation of how a dyno works, thank you. As a bike rider I&apos;ve used different dynos over the years and there&apos;s definitely some who try and convince you that only they have the &quot;dark secret&quot; to unleashing more power, when in reality they&apos;re fudging the results. There is quite a well known (infamous) &quot;bike tuner&quot; who does just this and his claimed results are so wildly different to everyone else&apos;s and his results cause quite a bit of lively discussion on different bike forums.

    Love the deep dive into dynos and dispelling the myths. I wish I&apos;d have known all this 20 years ago before going on pointless dyno days and being disappointed because I was focused on the final number without knowing where the car started.
