Default DYNO vs. REALITY

Has anyone performed a comparison test between dyno numbers and hard numbers on the road by using one of those dashboard mounted meters that measures times and RWHP etc...? Does "x", say 450 RWHP, on the dyno translate into that on the pavement? Any charts/spreadsheets out there comparing different dynos to the respective road numbers?

not dyno to road... but I am searching for a dyno day on a dynojet dyno so I can see the actual difference between mustang dyno numbers and dynojet dyno numbers.

in my opinion the mustang dynos that you can put a load on the system are good for tuning, and dynojet dynos that read higher are good for braggin numbers...
