    So I started playing with this tonight because I wanted to see how Drews car compared to others but without using a dyno numbers. The spreadsheet itself is very cool and is a pretty useful tool if you are tuning your own stuff. Its a little bit of a pain to figure it out but once you do its fairly easy.

    Anyone else used it?

    Ill post the chart if anyone is interested, according to the toptens on Nasioc its making pretty good power.

    If you don't want to do it yourself just log the car and Ill plug it in for you.

    instead of screwing with this spreadsheet you could have been getting hammered ass fucking drunk with us at mccrackens. and staring at lisa's rack.

    The thing about it is it is SOOO easy to fudge results on airboy. I will agree that if it is properly set up it seems to read pretty accurate, but if the road is not flat, any setting is off, it will give screwy results.

    Somehow I really doubt that.

    It's just as easy to fudge a dyno too so it goes both ways. I never could get the airboy to work with my graphs.

    Trap times tell it all.

    No doubt, but people seem to think the airboy is like a constant. For instance, your buddy Juan. He seems to think that Airboy is the end all be all and that it reads lower than a mustang. While this may be true if set up 100% correctly, there are so many factors that it relies upon for data entry, I would say that provided that you just stick a car on the dyno and run it it will be pretty consistent. Airboy is not nearly as consistent. It changes from car to car, weight to weight, road to road, incline to decline, all kinds of variables.

    I like it more as a tool for my personal use, kind of like a dyno. I still don't that it is accurate enough to tune with but its fun to play with. I'm working on a good spreadsheet to output the log files from the AEM to, because the AEM logger sucks

    its good comparison (relative) tool.
    I use something similar of my own.

    There are a lot of assumptions and constants but stable enough to get good results and can be used for road tune.

    Its kind of good for road tuning the torque doesn't show up like it should and its not sensitive enough for small changes.
