Default Correction factors & Dyno readings?

I had my car tuned and I have the numbers but what I'm wondering what correction factor is everyone using when they give their numbers? Here are the options:
SAE, DIN, EEC, STD & Uncorrected.
What do they all mean and what one would I use?

I Dynoed @ 351 Uncorrected
@370 Using SAE
@387.74 with STD

What is the correct reading?
It was 98.71 degrees (inside at the dyno) and I the humidity someplace in the 80%

Default Re: Correction factors & Dyno readings?

SAE is what you want to use. Everyone uses it for comparison purposes.

Uncorrected is what your car is actually putting to the ground. No correction for Temp, Alititude, Barometric Pressure, etc.

SAE: The Standard

STD: Older Standard
