correct me if im wrong but mustangs dyno are the worst for accurate reading
dynojet / dynapack are more accurate

but at the end of the day

dyno numbers are for show, and track times are for the dough

haha wish i got force induction to say something like that !!

i have no idea in the terms on accuracy...

but in the spring i could easily go dyno somewhere else if i am looking for numbers,

and ray i totally agree with you... it would be nice if there was a standardization of dyno calibrations...



at the end of the day all i know is i want more power(once my car is running again) lol

actually load bearing dynos are the most accurate to having REAL readings... Dynojets, etc don't apply load to the wheels. Puttin load on the wheels actually acts as if the wheels were on the ground actually rolling. RG's dyno is just poorly calibrated I think. I don't care really that its low though.. I can say i only have 240 whp and then beat something that is claiming 300whp.
