You can get proper map tuning doing on-road tuning

i think both also needed, coz on the road can tune low rpm , dyno can tune to get horse power at high RPM

:cool:If the final On-road tuning and test-driving already being done perfectly, then what for still hook up to dyno to re-adjust the tuning with the dyno's power simulation error? Make it simple- The dyno is just a power simulator which equipped with simulated power load sensors and do not expect 100% accuracy.

:cool:No matter how good is the Ferrari or Lambo's racing dyno equipped, they still need road tester like :- Mr. Micheal Shoemaker, Mr. Alonso & etc.

Street tuning vs Dyno tuning
it neverending arguement

but one solid point i want to bring out
assuming a estimated 400 to 500whp car
go to road tuning and accident happen
assuming tune halfway ,car lost control and end up smash something
who bare the repair cost ?
owner or tuner ?

Road tuning can be done anywhere. I've done my road tuning using Putra Jaya highway, it was a great job. Engine clocked 7seconds to 100kmh, 16seconds to 160kmh.

Overall 1.8seconds improvement over dyno tune that I've done earlier at GTauto.
