AEM’s Dyno-Shaft on-vehicle dynamometer system is literally a dyno on your car. It provides Horsepower and Torque numbers by measuring a vehicle’s Torque and RPM at the driveline, while you drive. It allows you to gather information under real-world conditions.
A little info from the AEM website:
Eliminate Guesswork - Know for sure if slower times are due to a loss of power, vehicle set up or driver error.
Engine tuning - Stop trying to approximate real world test conditions and start testing in the real world! Finally you can test with actual intake air conditions, actual vehicle loading and the hundred other things that make a real vehicle behave very different than it does when on a dyno.
Chassis Set Up - Know when the tires will break loose. Ideal for optimizing drag launches and determining the longitudinal forces your tires can handle in road racing.
Torque Converter and Clutch development - Finally know what your Torque converter or clutch is doing while you are making a pass!
Dyno It All - The Dyno-Shaft accurately reads in all conditions including steady state, uphill or downhill, even while coasting down!
RECORDING, READING AND OUTPUTTING DYNO-SHAFT DATA At its core, the Dyno-Shaft is a sensor that measures Torque and RPM and uses this data to output a vehicle’s Horsepower and Torque in real time. You will need a ‘host device’ to record, view and output data from the Dyno-Shaft.The following devices are capable of reading and logging data from the Dyno-Shaft via AEMnet:
See the screen captures below for outputted dyno graphs from the Dyno-Shaft and ease of set up.
Certain CAN-enabled devices from other manufacturers are configured to read Dyno-Shaft data. If you do not have one of the AEM devices listed above you will need one of the devices listed below, and will need to confirm that it can read the data from the Dyno-Shaft by contacting your manufacturer:
The dyno-shatft on-vehilce dynamometer is offers in two forms, Sportsman and Pro series.
