I have Heard the Mustang Dyno is very Conservative....Takes away About 10hp average.....Just what I have been told By Several ppl including a Shop owner of a Mustang Dyno

thats because it takes in account of the cars weight. not only the 1000 pound roller that dynojets have.
and its not 10hp... its 10-20% depending on the car and tuner
