I can post SAE numbers if that makes a difference but on both cars I can dig up graphs with the same numbers in SAE.

it wasnt just 1 graph with non sae numbers....you take the time to select hp tq scaling afr rpm why not one more click for sae so everyone can have the same...it should be only 1-2% or so....and then theres other shops fussing with their weather station to get larger than normal correction factors to produce higher corrected numbers....

Kurt,
I agree with what your saying,but in reality does it really make a difference in the real world? My dyno numbers are 605/589,now if they were 545/529 or 645/629 based on some dyno manipulations would that really affect my performance at the track...we all know that the answer is no. So in my opinion dyno numbers are just that "numbers" and if the track performance is lacking (trap MPH) then you know that the dyno numbers are inflated or if the performance is far better (trap speed) than the numbers posted then just the opposite is true. Some guys believe or want to believe some of the ridicules dyno numbers they post (not pertaining to this tread). I guess those numbers are good for their ego, so be it. However,it doesn't make their car any faster!
