Helix Dynos the R56
Krut agreed to let us guinea pig his R56 for some baseline dynos. Our car will be here tomorrow, when we will do more with proper data logging, but in the mean time we had to see where the R56 stands. Ambient Temperature was about 40 in our unheated dyno room, so conditions were good for strong runs.
We only did 3 runs, since KRUT's car has a mere 250 miles on it (helix has an accelerated break-in program: mulitple dynos that loosen that motor right up
). The first run, with the motor relatively cool produced big torque numbers, which we were not able to reproduce with the next two runs. These numbers are measured at the wheels, with no correction factor.
Some pictures of the car on the dyno:
