All this talk about "makes WHP" but in what scenario? Obviously climate matters. But are we talkin making power for some late night pulls? Drag race? Circuit?

I changed my license plate frame from metal to rubber, +50HP.

Weather doesn't matter. Just ask for corrected numbers when you Dyno.

I said climate not weather. Ambient temperature, humidity, air pressure, affect raw Dyno results.

That's the same thing. Standard Dyno will measure for actually results in your conditions. Temp, humidity, altitude, etc.

SAE (corrected numbers) will give you 100% ideal conditions for what if possible to make given the right day and altitude.

For example, my 2013 Mustang made 391 whp. Using corrected numbers it made 409 whp.

I understand why you have corrected numbers, but they're not applicable in most conditions.
If you live somewhere that's constantly hot and humid and dyno your car, I don't see why it would matter what an engine will make at perfect sea level, perfect temp and zero humidity if it will rarely, if ever, see those conditions.
...other than being able to spit out a higher 'corrected' number when asked what you're making.

"How fast can you run the 40?"
"4.62. But 4.45 using 'corrected' calculations."
"I can also bench 675 lbs using corrected numbers based on lifting on the moon."

Corrected numbers are satisfying for what "could be" possible.

People mainly use them to compare with friends who live in completely different weather conditions or different parts of the country for comparison.

And I don't know what planet you're on, but we have seasons here on earth. 4 of them actually. So corrected numbers may be a good benefit for say what you can make in June versus January.

I totally get it. It's just slightly odd to me. Because I think, and I could be wrong, that I've heard corrected numbers on different dynos can be different. Like your Mustang dyno'd 391 corrected to 409, but on another dyno your 309 would be corrected to 421. For something so specific, it doesn't seem like there's a universal exact formula to come up with the corrected figure(s).

You're right. A Dyno is just a tool to compare past vs present mods.

You could throw 100 stocks Z's on a Dyno same day and get 100 different numbers.

Dyno vs Street is another story as well.

Correct! I make a lot of power but with these stock junk Bridgestone tires...... I'd probably lose to a Camry

Well here is my custom tune dyno results on pump 93 , and E60. More left on the table for E85. But I wasn't near a gas station with it for appointment.

How are you making 502 hp?
