Noob question. When folks speak about invalid readings with the hood open (with short-tube intake mods), I'm guessing that is it due to lower temps in the engine bay, right? I'm only familiar with dynos for motorcycles (DynoJet w/Power Commander, etc).

To take it a step further, when a car is in motion (cooler air being drawn into the engine bay), numbers should be higher than a stationary vehicle on a dyno, right?
