Preparing Your Vehicle for Dyno Testing: A Step-by-Step Guide by Supercharged Performance

Introduction: Optimizing Performance Testing

At Supercharged Performance, we specialize in fine-tuning your vehicle to achieve optimal performance. A key part of this process is using our state-of-the-art 1200BHP 2WD dyno. This blog post will guide you through how we prepare vehicles for dyno testing, ensuring accurate and reliable results every time.

Step 1: Driving On – FWD and RWD Considerations

The first step in dyno testing is correctly positioning the vehicle. For front-wheel-drive (FWD) vehicles, we drive straight onto the dyno to align the driving wheels with the rollers. For rear-wheel-drive (RWD) vehicles, we reverse them onto the dyno. This alignment is crucial for accurate readings and safety.

Step 2: Securing the Vehicle – Strapping Down

Once the car is in position, the next critical step is securing it. We use robust straps to fasten the vehicle tightly to the dyno. This prevents any movement that could affect the precision of our tests or compromise safety.

Step 3: Simulating Driving Conditions – Extraction and Cooling

To replicate real-world driving conditions, we employ powerful extraction and cooling fans during the dyno test. The extraction system removes exhaust gases, while the cooling fans simulate the airflow a car would experience on the road, helping to keep engine and air temperatures stable throughout the test.

Step 4: Vehicle Setup – Dyno Mode and Traction Control

Depending on the make and model of the car, we either engage a specific dyno mode or disable traction control. This setup is vital for eliminating any electronic interference that could skew the test results, allowing us to gather accurate data on the car’s performance.

Step 5: Synchronizing Engine RPM with Dyno Software

An essential part of preparing for dyno testing is synchronizing the engine RPM with the dyno software. This process ensures that the dyno accurately captures all relevant data as the vehicle is tested. Precise synchronization allows us to monitor the engine’s performance in real-time, adjusting parameters as needed to obtain the most accurate results.

Unlocking True Potential: Upgrading the Ford Fiesta MK7 ST from REVO Stage 1 to Stage 2

Introduction: Take Your ST to the Next Level

Have you already experienced the thrill of the REVO Stage 1 tune on your Ford Fiesta MK7 ST? Ready to push the boundaries even further? Dive into our latest success story, where we elevate an ST from REVO Stage 1 to Stage 2, incorporating top-tier performance upgrades like a Scorpion Sports cat downpipe, an Airtec Intercooler, and an induction kit.

Why Upgrade to REVO Stage 2?

Upgrading to REVO Stage 2 isn’t just about enhancing performance; it’s about unlocking your vehicle’s true potential. With the addition of a few key components, your Fiesta ST can gain an extra 20 BHP and 60 NM of torque over the Stage 1 setup, transforming your driving experience with significantly improved responsiveness and power.

Key Upgrades Explained

Scorpion Sports Cat Downpipe: This high-flow downpipe drastically reduces exhaust back-pressure, allowing your engine to breathe better and increasing the efficiency of turbo spooling.
Airtec Intercooler: With greater cooling capacity, the Airtec Intercooler ensures your engine runs at optimal temperature, which is crucial for maintaining performance during high-demand situations.
Induction Kit: Enhancing the air intake system with an induction kit not only improves airflow but also contributes to better engine sound, making your drive not just faster but also more exhilarating.

Performance Gains: Numbers Speak Louder

After the upgrade, the Fiesta ST now proudly delivers an additional 20 BHP and 60 NM torque. These enhancements were achieved using 95 RON fuel, which is quite common; however, this also means there’s potential for even more impressive gains with higher octane fuels. This fact underscores the capability of the Stage 2 setup to leverage better fuel for enhanced performance, ensuring that power is always on tap when you need it most.

Audi SQ7 Transformation: A Client’s Pursuit of Power and Personal Style

At Supercharged Performance, we witness many remarkable stories of transformation, but one recent journey stands out — the transformation of a client’s Audi SQ7. This is not just a story about enhancing a vehicle’s performance; it’s a narrative of personal ambition and the expression of individual style.

Our client came to us with a vision, seeing their Audi SQ7 as more than a luxurious SUV. They saw it as a canvas for personal expression, awaiting the perfect blend of power and elegance. Their desire was not just for enhanced performance but to tailor the SQ7 to reflect their unique personal taste. We embarked on this journey together, involving a Stage 1 remap and a thoughtful dechrome of the rear chrome trim, transforming an already impressive vehicle into a bespoke symbol of their identity.

The Essence of the Transformation: Stage 1 Remap The heart of this transformation was the Stage 1 remap, a process not just about upgrading an engine, but about unlocking potential. This step was about bringing our client’s vision to life, elevating the SQ7’s performance to match the owner’s aspirations.
