I'm with you on that one.
I'm not really sure what the question is asking here though, seems to be worded oddly.

You're right - I did not do a good job of explaining this for some reason. Sorry about that! It is clear in my mind, but the delivery is poor. I'll try once more.
A company is going to dyno test at least one engine on a fairly-sophisticated inertia-style engine dyno this week. I have intimate knowledge of this dyno that simulates the operation of a racecar more closely than an absorber-style dyno is able; thus the data is different than that from an absorber style dyno.
This company has previously tested like engines on the most sophisticated and elaborate dyno's available. Those dyno's (and the inertia-dyno) offer multiple features to analyze. The list of features offered is nearly endless. From torque & power to individual cylinder pressures, to various flows, temp's etc...
There is a group of sharp individuals on this forum that enjoy learning about the latest technologies and also enjoy predicting outcomes.
When I learned of this upcoming test - my immediate thought was; "I wonder what types of data this company desires to analyze during the test-session, and what their priorities are". Upon realizing that this information was interesting to me - I thought it might be interesting to anyone on here, so I decided to offer it up as a quiz.
For example:
My guesses (in order of priority) would be:
1) Rates of Acceleration
2) Fuel Flow (during acceleration and deceleration)
3) Air Flow (during acceleration and deceleration)
4) Intake Vacuum
5) A/F Ratio
6) Individual A/F Ratios
I have the knowledge that all fluid temp's will be well-controlled and consistent; however if I did not have this knowledge - I would want to be able to see these temp's to ensure a consistent series of tests. These temp's would probably be at the top of my particular list.
Does this better explain the question?
