No no I understand that, but the dyno measures what your engine is putting down to the ground, through the drivetrain. It is a truer measure of useful power than simply what your engine alone is producing. I recognize the fact that flywheel hp is not affected. I am trying to get a handle on both, and understand how much loss at the wheels I might be looking at.
