Thanks AL , I understand that , but is that same scenario on the dyno able to duplicated when it's 100 degrees in the staging lanes ?



A dyno can give you any corrected number that you want it to and is one of the best reasons we see engines with high numbers on the dyno and are PIGS at the track. Same with a flowbench. I wish we all ran at some of the coastal tracks but most of us don't and will NEVER see those corrected dyno numbers on the track.
