2) Flow Bench Controller Updates  We've made some updates to our Flow Bench Depression (test pressure) Controller, to maintain test pressure as you test.  This can save time and can keep motors from overheating.

3) Fuel Economy Calculator - Featured Product  If you want your street ride to get better fuel economy, or you are an automotive engineer, or just want to understand what factors affect fuel economy, this is the program for you.  

 

For example, it can answer questions like:

  • What's my MPG improvement if I switch from a 3.55 to 3.00 rear axle ratio?
  • What's my expected drop in MPG with a 10 MPH head wind?
  • What's my expected drop in MPG with 5 extra amps of draw on the alternator?
  • I've built an engine in the Engine Analyzer with 2 different cams.  What would be the difference in MPG for these 2 different cams cruising at 70 MPH?

These and thousands more questions can be answered by the Fuel Economy Calculator.
