Default Dyno question

Not sure if this is where to post this but I will ask anyway. How much HP loss should I estimate when Dyno was run at 99 degrees and 97% humidity?
Car only pulled 370rwhp with stageII heads 218/222 cam LS6 intake and FLP long tubes, plus all the other bolt-ons.

Dynojets have weather correction factors. You should have received a printout with "actual" HP for that weather, and "SAE Corrected" HP based on a standard set of weather conditions.

SAE numbers are what everyone compares with.

Dynojet's correction factor is very good. Usually, there will be less than 5rwhp variation between the worst weather and the best.

hey don't fret dyno numbers....they are great for comparing mods but not much else unless you dyno'd with friends. Just think...on a Mustang Dyno you would've only pulled 345rwhp <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" /> Mph at the track is what you really want to look at.

Thats odd, I dynoed higher (12rwhp) on a mustang dyno than I did on a dyno jet with the same mods?? 1 MADSS was there also and thought the mustang was too high? Oh, well just use them for upgrade #s and its all good.

Mustang Dyno's don't correct to SAE if I remember correctly. Don't they correct to STD?
