Before and after on the same dyno is about the best you can do to know what your mods gave you, no more no less.

Run it at the 1/4 mile if you wanna know how much power it really makes.
Correct on the dyno assumptioins, yet, dynos are MUCH more consistent than a 1/4 mile drag pass. That's why they are so often used AND compared. Not perfect, though. Agreed.

I was underwhelmed at the "Outstanding bang for the buck" statement at 'just' 380whp. $9,000 for @ 80whp?

That said, I know how quickly the value can increase. It is proportional to the boost PSI ....
