I prfer the dynapack as it eliminates certainn variables thus giving a more accurate reading
But in the end its all down to the operator having said that tho the better the rollers/dyno the better the operator can set-up your car

The problem I have with the dynopac is the massive load it places on the wheel bearings duo to the distance from the hub to the dyno machine,
I have heard some people have had wheel bearing problems after.
