it may be obvious, but it's entirely relevant to this thread. the dynojet is a more accurate representation of the real-world performance of the vehicle. the dynapack is a more accurate representation of the power of the engine itself. 40 pounds of wheel may be a 'variable' but it is a real factor in the performance of the vehicle.

Lighter parts I believe definitely would show a difference in power. Less rotational mass.

On a roller dyno, I also believe that larger ratio, heavier wheels will make a difference too.

Also does the weight of my wheel set up make a diff on a mustang dyno... Example, If my base runs were done using OEM wheel and I then replace the OEM with some heavy ass 18" wheels.....
Thanks
