Aside from the dyno itself, isn't whp affected by the tires? The tires have to transmit the energy to the dyno, so if the tires have a super high coeficient of friction, then the dyno will read higher whp than from a tire that is less slippery. Some of the bhp is lost as heat as the tires flex and slip.
