Good figures for just over a bar of boost mate nice one!! Cars looking sweet!!!
That depends on whether the power@wheels figures compensate for air temp and pressure variables.
What possible explaination could there be for "fannying about with figures" or adding a "fudge factor" to compensate as you put it. Where power is measured @the wheels?

By compensating as you suggest. The only meaningful figure. Power @wheels would then become a mere guestimate along with projected @fly figs.
So, PAW is the be-all and end-all is it??

Are you not aware of pressure variations according to height above sea-level and runs that take place in different ambient temperature conditions?

Even at AVA's god-given RR, the weather is subject to variation.
