I bet there are only a handful of Dyno's in the country used by people that are more interested in giving what the operators feel are fair and honest (even if sometimes disappointing) figures, but a hundreds used by people that either can't accept a new way of doing things or who operate their dyno to make them look good.
it's also 'good to see' that some people actually using dynos seem to have little idea of the physics and engineering principles behind how they work
