  I don't really think that for OPTIMUM setup, comparing
an engine at 4000rpm no-load and 4000rpm full load is
going to be accurate.

  For normal use, I'm sure it's fine. But if somebody is
going to the trouble of trying to get a super bang-on
tuneup for optimum performance, I'd want to do it at
load.

  Obviously, the rolling road is the place to be.
