What gear are your dyno runs done in?
I guess technically the results shouldn't differ? My dyno runs were done in 4th, does this jive with your experiences?

which ever gear is closest to a 1:1 ratio...which would be 4th in a Prelude...some people do 3rd gear because it is easier on the car I guess.

The differences are hardly anything....and 4th gear is harder ont he motor obviously.

Also, the slower the RPM's go up, the more jagged your graph is going to look...

So 3rd gear is most preferable to clean, accurate graphs that is safer on the motor.
