Has anyone here done a D.D. vs. real life dyno or strip comparison? I've heard there's a healthy error factor, generally the D.D. is more on the generous side.
And Mike, would you be interested in running D.D. on mine if I shot you the specs?

Something else is to consider is that this is measuring at the flywheel and a lot of people measure at the wheels. Depending on the tranny you can have a substantial loss of power.

I know a guy that used it as he was building his engines and he would test them in the car. And yes there was a difference but that was because it was in the car. By his estimations he said the D D would be very close.
