dyno mode

anyone try running in dyno mode and vboxing it? I was reading on other forum that GAD is going from like 3.5 sec 0-62mph (0-100 kph) to 2.6 sec when using dyno mode on one of their builds... obviously some of the torque limitations are raised in dyno mode

Did some reading on this a few months ago and dyno mode offers no extra power and removes no limitations on torque or rpm limitations

The 0-60 claim doesn't sound right

the 0-60 claim is on 983 chp , so if our 577 chp stock cars can do it in ~ 3.7 sec i would hope an extra 406 chp can reduce 0-60 by 1.1 sec

Your first post didn't quite clarify that ... Thanks for your eyeroll and clarity

" I was reading on other forum that GAD is going from like 3.5 sec 0-62mph (0-100 kph) to 2.6 sec when using dyno mode on one of their builds."

did you notice the parts in bold? GAD is known for their builds going way beyond just a tune (plus getting a tune wouldnt be considered "a build" ) ... kinda of like if you mention AMS/GTR build , or UGR/ lambo build , you know they are not doing a build for only small hp gain

I know what ya mean. Put the wife's in dyno mode to put it on the dyno & she freaked out when she got in it the next day to go somewhere & the dash was a lit up.

To answer another question in here, it's my understanding dyno mode turns off the tq limiting & wheel speed sensors/abs in the ECM.
