The bullshit of Corvette C7 Stingray and 2015 Corvette C7 "dyno" derived horsepower numbers

This is a classic example of bullshit surrounding the alleged horsepower and torque gains and it is coming not from +General Motors or +Tadge Juechter but none others than aftermarket Corvette "power brokers".

What is wrong with this picture?  THE HOOD IS WIDE OPEN, effectively removing even a trace of credibility from these "measurements" by supplying the air that undersized front air intake fails to provide.

Is this clever?  Of course it is, especially if someone happened to turn on air conditioning or even a swamp cooler in that bullshit "testing area".

Here is a thought: CLOSE THAT HOOD and run the car for a minimum of 20 minutes in the actual ambient temperature while revving the engine up or drive it around before conducting these tests.  This way, there will be a better representation of the real life and what the newest generation of  Corvette consistently fails to deliver (or use a hacksaw and have at it Callaway style).
