LMR, in the video it looked like the LED lights in the headlight were pulsing. Do you know what that was from? I watched a few times, guess it could be a reflection of something but it was steady the whole time.
Watched it again and looks like the taillights are pulsing too?
Umm... The numbers I saw were 400whp 1st run and 402whp 2nd run. Technically that's over 400whp. Did I misread something lol?

A dyno is a tuning tool, just because this one reads lower doesn't mean that the car isn't healthy or the numbers aren't accurate. It didn't sound like it was an auto nor could I see inside it, but I'd confirm that to make sure that wasn't why it dynoed lower.
The output of light from an LED is a certain frequency in hertz. Let's say it's 30 Hz from the LED and the camera recording it records at a common 24 frames per second. Every few frames recorded by the camera will not be in sync with the light source and thus a "blinking" occurs where the camera caught the LED in between cycles.
