I don't think that Scott & Kevin's point about dyno tuning is necessarily wrong, because I think having access to a dyno is *far* better than not having access to one. They're great for WOT tuning, and to an extent, for part-throttle and other stuff. BUT, like Dean is saying, it's not everything either. We've spent hours with our racecar on a Mustang dyno at a local place here, but have still wound up making multiple changes once we're at the track to adjust/fix/optimize things. There's just usually not enough time to do everything at the dyno.
