Accurate for what?

Dynojet is the industry standard for chassis dynos.

there isnt really one thats more accurate than another. all a dyno is good for is tuning or to see a difference between parts or combos. no dyno is exactly the same as the next its just a referance tool. just make sure that if your trying to see the difference in parts that ur installing that you go to the same dyno for the before and after

^Excellent way to put it. There is usually a very large difference between the Chassis dyno numbers and the old skool out of body numbers. but the chassis dyno was intended to give a fair idea of the rwhp after drivetrain losses. Basically you will see different numbers with the same chassis dynos if you use one then go across the street and use the same brand. They are meant to be close, not perfect.
