With all the talk about dyno tresting I hope you are all are refering to
Engine dyno time not chassis. The engine dyno can pick up the little power
increases that just slip by on a chassis dyno and the repeats are
significatly better. BUT some accurate testing of any kind is certainly
better than a beer hall guess.
