Like Jon Kaase likes to say "we picked up 5 cfm on the flow bench, dyno'd the engine and lost 10hp, so I unplugged the flow bench". A flow bench can be a useful development tool, but Steve Morris is right in that a CFM number by itself does not guarantee more power. He is not the only guy who feels size and shape matter more.

 

if you dont use a tool correctly and understand its limitations then you get into trouble when you try and interpret the results.

Correlation does not always equate to causation.

Poor Eric.

 

Add Brian Salter to this list as far as Flow bench versus Shape and line of sight.

 

Shape can be achieved with a flow bench via a pitot tube....

 

Harold Bettes would always tell me that a flow bench was for visual aid and the lifeblood for a pitot tube.
