What sort of roads is he doing this on? The general highway or a run way? Sounds dangerous to me if he is doing it on his own up the A34.  :lipsrsealed:

Usually does it on some quieter dual carriage way,  big fish tuning does his on road by his units. He has rr but pref doing them on road rr them after all set up.Each to there own way of doing it really possibly.

I wouldn't want my car mapped on the road, doing a 3rd gear pull to the redline a few times is asking to have your licence taken off you.

Cars can be mapped for driveability on the road. Which alot of people forget about. Most dyno runs are WOT to the redline. So it only shows how engine performs in that condition.

Ive done mine on the road to fine tune for cruise fuelling at different speeds and throttle positions. Also tip-in can be tweaked. Helps if someone is there with you who can monitor afrs etc.

A dyno can then be used for fine tuning and to optimise the map.
It is ultimately a safer environment for this especially for high powered Turbo cars that reach illegal speeds very quickly. Plus the conditions can be repeated on several runs where the road is constantly changing.
