The dyno wars are never going to be resolved. The best you get out of a dyno is the same car on the same dyno on the same day (but if a thunderstorm rolls in in the afternoon, you don't even get credit on the same day). I consider them a "delta" measurement (change something see if it is better or worse) but not an absolute measurement.

The guy that did my Cobra fuel injection on the dyno said that Colorado was going to do a "weights and measures" official calibration that would insure that it was repeatable. I don't know if they ever did it. My question was "what would you use for the golden standard?"
