In all reality, I'd rather have a stingy dyno than a liberal dyno. If my dyno shows that you have 600hp and you put down a 14.50 on the track, then something's up. If my dyno shows that you have 450hp and you run a 10.80, then that makes everybody look good.

The shop I use down here to dyno my junk told me he wished he had 10 bucks for every 600hp engine he has dynoed that barley made 400hp!!!!!!!!!
