Yeah, it's a legit question that sweet2k is asking. Basically tuners can manipulate data entered into a dyno to read whatever numbers they want. It's actually quite common. SAE is the standard for automotive enginering and they have a set of standard info that they use on dynos so people can get a more accurate reading.

not bad, I made shy under 300 with a midpipe and mufflers, intake and a crappy handheld tune, so once I do headers and actually get it dyno tuned we should be good, but I am learning how to do tuning at wyotech so im psyched about that

Wouldn't that depend on the size of the leak?
