I have tried to explain 3 different times using as specific examples as I could. I give up.

You are right in everyway, please no one listen to me.

I was just trying to help you, or anyone else interested, understand the importance of using proper proceedures when using sophisticated test equipment for more accurate results.

I agree it is a tool for tuning, but using SAE numbers is also a great way to see if you are within the HP range that your car should be making given the mods. If it's a lot lower than the range, then you start troubleshooting for the problem. It would also be a PITA to shop for mods and create your setup having to factor in Uncorrected numbers since people post their dyno sheets form all across the country. SAE numbers are a good thing.
