Need To Dyno Your Engine? High Horsepower - High RPM?....We Can Handle It!

There is little argument that the dyno cell is an excellent tool to measure engine performance. However, there are differences in dyno cells and dyno operators.

Part of the difference is in the equipment in the cell and how the cell is constructed. Like everything at Pro Car, Chuck and Chris Wright were not satisfied with “normal.” They felt if Pro Car was going to have a dynamometer, it needed to reflect their determination to evaluate not only horsepower and torque, but to do so in a condition approaching real-world conditions.

For those reasons, Pro Car built, from the ground up, a system which is at O.E.M. standards. Drawing on Chuck’s years of experience with the General Motors performance programs, and Chris’s knowledge of electronic systems, they have created a dyno system rated for 2500 horsepower at over 10,000 RPM,utilizing the latest DEPAC dyno system augmented with automation and control products from Schneider Electric.

The Pro Car cell allows complete atmospheric control and real-world modeling capabilities. The state-of-the-art cell telemetry monitors a wide range of functions relating to engine operation and efficiencies. This, combined with the ability to manipulate atmospheric pressures and humidity, allows the Pro Car dyno system to address the effects of altitude changes from track to track, or the effects of climate swings over the course of a race weekend. Additionally, when interfaced with existing data from data acquisition, the dyno can mimic lap cycles and allow tuning changes to be evaluated.

Chuck Wright, across his career has thousands of dyno pulls done on a wide variety of engines, from high output inline 4-cylinder engines, to turbo charged V-6s, to large inch Mountain Motor Pro Stock and Pro Mod (plus marine) engines, including turbo charged, supercharged or nitrous assisted applications. In addition to seeking the top end of the curve, he also has learned to see and hear what the engine is telling him on the stand, often avoid a catastrophic failure before it occurs. Chris Wright has learned his father’s skills and coupled with his electronics expertise, has become a superior operator in his own right.

Pro Car offers half day and full day sessions, plus tuning services.
