lol, no ****.
I made probly 5 more hp with it being STD than SAE. So it would have showed less HP if it was an SAE correction.
Mike on the first page who said it was STD is the one who dynoed the car, so it was a STD run.

Dynojet dynos do the same thing, puts out high numbers. So take about 10% off across the board if you ever plan on taking it to a different dyno and trying to compare them.
Anyways, STP/STD is 4% higher than SAE. You can basically take any number thats an STP number and multiply it by .96 to get what your SAE correction number would have been. Now on a Mustang dyno or Superflow dyno your SAE numbers would have been more like 301hp and 315tq.
None of which really matters unless posting high dyno numbers makes you feel good about your manhood or something, but thats just how it is.
Ex: You made about what, 335hp and 350tq on a dynojet with STP correction. So to get that to SAE you subtract 4% to 322hp and 336tq.

This has been bugging me and the more I look into it STP and STD are the exact same thing. To me STP is Standard Temp & Pressure and is corrected to a unreasonable low temp with a high baro like 29.92 or something IIRC and zero humidity. Thats why I like SAE, and magazines and dyno shops like STP. If they put out higher numbers people will buy more from them.

I know how hard the car pulls and that's all that matter. I would rather dyno 301 and smoke somebody claiming they dynoed 350.
