^ No more need for a drag track
No more need for a dyno either


hell do not even need integrated logging! (this is how I tuned the ND4SPD Capella on my web site with this instrument and my Autronic B Model AFR meter, on garbage ghetto microwreck ECU lol. Note how flat the AFR curve is on the dyno at Summernats dyno competition when it went there to this day no one has ever made so much power consistently on a true street car that runs on proper common fuel *and it was never tuned for 'power' on a dyno just road tuning on the VBOX*
All with the power of VBOX mini. You will see stacks of info on my web page on the water injection page with a VBOX min data log of that car.


It's a top little unit.... highly recommend it.
For tuning I have a quick simple harness where you can back probe certain signals, fit up your own map sensor or various sensors and away you go, it is very simple and quite quick once you get your set up sorted.. I've done hundreds of cars this way and the beauty of the VBOX Tools system is I have them ALL on file and ALL are comparable to each other, so endless reports and analysis can be done across set ups..... and this is half the battle when you are doing allot of this.

What I love about my VBOX system more than any dyno is I have the dyno part (arguable more realistic than any dyno system in terms of figures it gives!) but I also have the performance figures, which customers love to see! as I say in my web page, its no good having one which does not correlate to the other!!! you always hear the excuse of 'dyno is just a tuning tool' when the reality does not match the theory....... with a VBOX both match! it is the best system around.

At the end of the day its just a good simple modern electronic version of what I was doing 20 years ago when my eng lecturer told me how to test cars using physics, and is exactly the same as what Author Hugh McInnes talks about in the famous iconic book called "How to select and Install TURBOCHARGERS" from the 1970's (the original and still the best text). I used to do all of this shit by hand, now with the VBOX It's automated and superbly accurate and repeatable and fully automated.
