that's not correct, it uses the weight and aerodynamics of the car to adjust the load put against the rollers, to simulate real world conditions. TQ is then measured through a strain gauge and HP calculated after that. Dynojets use a mass vs. speed vs. time type calculation to figure out HP then calculates TQ, this is like online HP calculators and Gtech type devices. Loaded Dyno's have advantages for tuning like being able to do part throttle and steady state tuning.

this is a pretty accurate reply

Thats why we use the mustang. we refer to the other one as "Internet Horsepower!"

However a good tuner can produce excellent gains on either dyno.
