There is no equivalent to the atomic clock for dynos. All we can do is disclose what type of dyno our numbers came from when we say our cars made xyz HP/TQ. People in the know will understand the significance of the number in relation to the type of dyno. And those who aren't in the know . . . well . . . screw 'em.
But we all know if you want "signature" numbers you should find a DynoJet somewhere
