The Leader in Diesel Performance
Dyno Series: Predicting Engine Power with Manifold Air Density
Join us as we prepare for the first fire of our 427″ Twin Turbo Gen 1 SBC. In this dyno series, we’ll explore a new way to predict engine power potential by reading Manifold Air Density (MAD) on our iDash Display. We’ll start naturally aspirated and gradually introduce twin turbos to see how MAD affects performance.
