Looking at those goofy graphs, and not getting corrected numbers, tells me
that they didn't learn their Dynojet very well!! They DEFINITELY need to
have that Dynojet rep explain some things to them!!  I'm sure that Don can
chime in here.

Yes, the corrected numbers for temp/baro/humidity are the numbers to be
looked at, since you can then compare them to dyno runs if you do it again
in 70-degree, low humidity conditions.

The raw numbers are not always useful, but personally I used the raw numbers
in 40-degree, low-humidity, high barometer readings, as they are higher than
the corrected #s, which are set at somewhere around 70 degrees. Both sets of
numbers can be useful for comparison.

What does "corrected numbers" mean?  Are you talking about some type of
normalization taking into account weather?

Basically what I'm dealing with is a brand new business.  The people have
not had an opportunity to even get a Dynojet rep come and explain the
system to them.  Considering that, it is amazing they can do what they
can.
