What's up with Cobb's dyno?

Look at these figures! It makes a lot of sense why people say that without a baseline figure, numbers are useless. That's a heart breaker!

Their numbers are just extremely low. Looking at the deltas, they seem about right. I was noting that it makes sense to always do baseline runs as there will be huge discrepancies between dynos.

The dyno in my area is a mustang also, that's kind of depressing knowing that whenever I dyno my car the results will appear this low haha

Dynos are not meant to measure absolute numbers, they are meant to measure delta

This.

A dyno is a tuning tool; not a measure with which to beat off to.
