Thats why I dont put much faith in dynos. There a great tuning tool but I'd rather brag about my track times than dyno numbers.
But you would actually have to run your car then. What are the ricers supposed to do?!?

Actually real ricers don't get on the dyno. They figure(B16 swap 160, header w/full exhaust 30, CAI 15) damn I make 205 hp. Get on make 130 whp and get pissed(I've seen IRL).

But yea as long as you know your car runs good at the track the number is just for your ego. Went down to the strip and ran my buddy with a turbo EK hatch(he had slicks but open diff). On the same dyno I made 343 rwhp he made 454 whp on 110 octane. We ran the same time lol
