ok.. so I guess I am coming to the party late you guys.
couple of questions.
Would anyone volunteer to make a tutorial on what product and process is used to collect the data, and a rough order of suitability
for example I have a ELM ODBLink MX+ and an android app either Torque
or Car Scan - useful to check and clear codes but has a logging function - dubious accuracy in their respective forums.
....
in between other free / demo ware used.

HP Tuners is probably the defacto standard.
If its too steep of an uplift I understand.
All we need is a torque number and the parts bolted on and which gear is in the record/ image snip?
FWIW - my dyno guy suggested 18-19 percent loss on M6 based on his experience.
I was also looking for an oppty to discuss dyno aka the vendor stock chart in my dyno chart post. I have reason to think the vendor chart is accurate.
272 tq at the wheel factory. 295 engine factory. that's an 8 percent drop in tq
219 hp at the wheel factory. 275 engine factory. that a 19.4 percent drop hp.
But torque is the practical result - hp is derived. Does anyone agree HP is really "just" a relative variable that shows how much Work is being lost at a particular rate of wheel rpm? And more importantly why does it take increasingly more Work as rpm increases, at the same time torque is seen decreasing.. Esp when a car is strapped to the floor lol..
If I shorted out, sorry about that the bruins are up 3-0... 4-0. ....
