I agree 100% with this, you have to let the car cool for a good bit OR ice the motor down. There are so many variables when you dyno a car...what gap are your plugs, what fuel are you running, what was the timing, humidity, air temp, gear ratio, mods (along with settings) etc...etc...

Don't be disappointed and keep in mind that you will get different numbers on different dynos as well. As long as the car feels strong on the road that's all that matters. Personally, I liked to back up dyno numbers with timed pulls at the track. So many different things could have taken place so don't even begin to sweat it unless you covered everything...and it sounds like you had few things that could have been working against you. (big one being HEAT)
