Guys, the absolute dyno numbers are *meaningless*. You can't compare between dynos. Ever.
Their only use is to compare before and after mods are done to the same car.
example: My car made 201whp prior to a 9psi Vortech. After, it made 329whp. That's a difference of 128whp, or (assuming 15% driveline loss) 147hp at the crank.
We all know there are "sweetheart" dynos out there that always run high. Just like there are "heartbreakers". I happened to have my car tuned on one of the latter, since it reads about 5% low from what I can tell. I could care less.
