Estimations are great and they make us feel good but without going on the dyno you really do not know what you are putting out. You can have a car on the dyno that is mistuned, over jetted, etc. and lose 60 hp even though the 'potential' is much greater.

Just because you estimate the hp at 'x' does not mean you are actually putting it out.
