Best dyno practices

[Ph4tty]

Is it best to go for the highest power setting first or last? I've heard first but have consitantly gotten my best runs on the 3rd or 4th pull.

Also is it best to have the truck running with the t-stat open before a pull?

I've noticed that some trucks did a lil more after the first pull, and I would have the truck up to 190 before dynoing, better on the HG

If the truck is heavily fueled then I like to go after the most power first, before the intercooler becomes heat soaked. The truck should be at normal operating temp before the first pull.

In most cases I have seen, the best number comes first if the truck is warmed and ready to the pull.
