Show the math or GTFO!
I have extensively tested this thread by comparing it to another one that was similar. I have been published in the forums over 45,000 times and am an expert on wasting energy.

Hey! Hey! Hey! I'm the only one to publish scientific analysis with our cars! I tested the effects of weighted (flossy knob) versus lightweight (TRD) on the force requirements of the glenohumeral joint of those with rotator cuff tendonitis. My study showed that the lightweight actually required less initial force production in scapular protraction due to not having to move a 500g knob. After that, which is where the heavy weight matters, the 500g actually helped. But it would be irrelevant since it's that initial demand which further aggravates the shoulder joint. Boom.

5th gear is 1 to 1 or close to it. So if i wanted I could do a baseline in 4th, add my parts, run it in 5th and show an improvement.

If so although it isn't accurate, we use it as a pre-post modifications comparison and reference point during mapping, I have more than 40-50 cars dynoed this way on the same road usually on 4th-5th gear, never on 2nd-3rd. Back to your "dyno" results you can't calculate acceleration using different parameters than the actual parameters of your car (has the app the correct BRZ parameters, CF, frontal area, gear ratios etc?) and should use >=4th gear. More important weight should be from yours not from a heavier US car otherwise your figures are "optimistic", why not use then a US car final drive ratio to balance results? |
