Deslock, your point is not on deaf ears. However, you must understand that what you're describing will blow over almost everyone's head. When someone enthusiastically posts "ZOMG my car just dyno'd 205wHP and 160wtorks!!!1!", they're obviously quoting the figures from the chassis dyno's calculation printout, not the raw measured data. We know the difference, but IMO it's not worth hashing out the already known and blissfully ignorant. Hell, even I will disclose chassis dyno pulls in wHP and wLbFt [chassis dyno] or cHP and cLbFt [interpolated crank figures from chassis dyno plus datalogging].
