nNH;

Many have tuned carbs using the "seat-of-the-pants / road-test technique"...instrumentation and a dyne clearly take away a lot of the variables to make it a more scientific process...but in the end, the driver needs to be happy with the response, so often, the MN and baseline settings arrived at on the dyne might get adjusted/tickled as a result of the drivers input anyway...I think we understand each other...

Cheers
