Correct don't get hung up on numbers. For example, the mustang we tune on reads a Stage 2 at about 170 and the exact same car on a dynojet will read about 200. We see about a 17% difference but as Jester stated look at 1/4 mile times.
Here is our Delicious Stage 2 Tune on E85. Not to slow... 13.58 @ 100.99 mph in hot and humid Texas. I have seen faster forced induction FRS's, but nothing NA....

We have seen a big difference in intake temps. The cooler the air you can get into the engine the more power you will make. A change of outside air temp of 10 degrees will equate to about 2-3 horsepower gain.
