Looks like I got 462RWHP and 497RWTQ in the STD setting, and 452RWHP and 486RWTQ in the SAE setting.
Lord only knows which one is the correct one to use and what the hell either of them mean  |
mike... basically your car actually laid down a few less HP than what is shown. a correction factor such as SAE is intended to compensate for atmospheric conditions that could steal power or add power, and try to level the playing field for the sake of comparison. So if you dyno on a freezing cold day, your car is gonna make more power UNCORRECTED but the correction factor is going to try its best to determine what your car would make on an average day. same as if its very hot out... your car will make less, and the correction will bump up your power to try and determine what it would be in the conditions that are its baseline. I cannot remember the baseline conditions, but you could easily look them up and see what the different correction factors are trying to change your readings into.
