Don't think it means comparing cars! A butt dyno would be used if you do a mod and maybe you can feel the difference from before and after!
But yes, the placebo effect seems to kick in as well with a lot of MODs on here! My Butt dyno has gone numb over the years!

i find that any increase in engine/exhaust sound increases hp gains on the butt dyno exponentially.

...that's true, I read it on the web. Faster after a good wash too.

I don't mean it compares cars, I'm just using it as an example.

Smoother torque curves make the 'butt dyno' hard to judge something. Honestly, I can't say I feel a different from any mods done to my car, with the exception of the supercharger.

After reading some reports on some MODs you would think they installed a Supercharger! Wonder if some of the posts are paid for by the vendor!

BTW. I sure hope your Butt dyno felt a difference after the install!
