Default dynojet vs mustang dyno for tuning?

Right now im on the hunt for a tuner what ive found is a dynojet shop...

I have heard mustang dynos are more accurate but i dont know which is better to have my tune done one

the place im considering has build some wild cars, a 14xxwhp ford gt for one which ive seen in person long before i heard about where it came from

but back on topic, should i be trying to find a mustang dyno shop to do the tune for my turbo setup or what?

im looking for 350-380whp but i dont want that being an inflated number


what are your guys opinions on the matter

i say it shouldnt matter. the dyno is just a tool a tuner uses to dial in the tune. i would a shop because of the tuner being a great tuner not the dyno they use. the car will make what is makes

well from reading online what i heard is people saying a dynojet is basically just for wot tuning and a mustang for a better all rpm tune....

the reason i said the hp rating the way i did was because i want to stay in a safe range for a stock bottom end, it's not about how much the car makes because i can just up the boost till it blows if i want, but id like to tune for the most power i can and if a dynojet gives inflated numbers then i may actually be pushing less hp than i desire
