Good Point! I've been told, though, that the dynojets are more consistent than other dynos because of the wheel drums are a consistent weight (1600lbs, I think) as opposed to a water wheel or dynos that use an electric brake to simulate load. But any two dynos will be off a bit as Z has pointed out, because of calibration factors as well as the dyno operators techniques. That's why I believe, whenever possible, you should use the same dyno and operator to verify your gains.
