dynojet is a inertia dyno, mustang dyno is a load bearing dyno. both have thier pluses and minuses. a dynojet will read slightly higher HP, and from what I have personally seen is accurate with 1/4 time calculators.
a mustang dyno has the ability to load the vehicle based on many variables, such as vehicle weight and wind resistance, but if you get any of this stuff wrong it spits out some "off" numbers, its pretty cool, but I can I do everything I need to do with my dynojet, it also has a brake feature that somewhat simulates more load, which is kinda cool.

A dynojet has an 11000lb roller and does not care how much your car weighs. The Mustang dyno has a 1400lb roller and uses your vehicle weight to help adjust it to better guarantee a more accurate reading. The dynojet tends to read about 10% higher than a Mustang dyno. However you can put the newer Mustang dynos in "dynojet" mode if you want to compare them. The shop in Tracy can do this. I opted out since I wanted to spend my extra pull on an adjustment.
