IMO, if you compare dynos, most are the same in the way they collect the data. The difference I have seen is how the data is coverted to HP and Torque or different starting points. If you have looked at novarossi base HP and Torque listed for their motors is usually higher the what the X-dyno or others will produce and I believe the data is converted based on something they feel is necessary to give proper numbers in their opinion. So,
Novarossi = 1.68 HP from website on 353 Plus 2
42,000 RPM and a recommendation of 16% nitro
Picco = 1.6 claimed HP from OFNA site and 41,000 RPM, not sure on fuel
So, you metioned the X-dyno said picco at 1.13 HP. Based against what? I just believe the X-dyno starts at a lower point compared to other dyno's. You can probably change the way the dyno calculates or starts it calculations to match the factory claims, especially with the 353. Make your numbers on the stock motor match 1.68 HP, then mod the motor to make comparision.
Or match any two different dyno's to produce the same stock numbers and then produce mod motor numbers from that point. That would give a better representation of what the mod is producing.

I was under the impresion that the Picco was the highest powered .12 ( based off dyno results)....so seeing you say the RB has much higher peak #'s has me curious..the Picco already made 1.13 HP on the X-Dyno how much stronger can the RB be ? its really a shame you dont have a X-Dyno so your dyno numbers could be compared to other motors tested on the X..for some reason your dyno reads much higher then the X even tho you use the same software
