I think your issue may be with your data loggers resolution when taking so many data points in such a short period of time.
As I stated in previous posts, I'm taking a total of 240 data points. Each has a resolution of 1us.

I'm guessing that your automotive logger operates as a sampled system, as most loggers do. Then the concern is: What is the sample rate? If the sample rate is 100Hz, then the time resolution is 10000us. That's useless for a flywheel dyno.
