All the other dynos, you never know what you are getting, so comparing them is impossible. Some dyno operators program in a "dynojet correction" to try and simulate a dynojet, usually making ridiculously high numbers, etc.

I hate to have say this, but this is the honest truth. Whenever someone posts a dynograph to a forum, if its not a Dynojet graph, I literally scroll right past it. I dont even look at the curve or numbers. As interesting and useful as it may have been to the operator/tuner on the dyno that made that graph... it is pretty much meaningless to the outside world for comparison because nobody knows how the dyno was even configured.

When it comes to buying a dyno. if you are only using it as a tuning tool.. a means of loading the engine while stationary for safe tuning.. then you have a few options. If you want a graph to compare with the rest of the US, then you want a Dynojet.

If you want a lot of outside business coming in to use your Dyno... dynojet. When I had my Dynojet it was basically up to me how much to use it... there was always people who wanted to use it. You could literally setup a one bay shop with a Dynojet in the ground and a little office and have that be your full time business once the word gets around.
