I have dyno'd many a vehicles, I've probably had 100's of dyno runs at multiple dyno shops, with different vehicles of all makes, and one thing they all had in common, is the fan(s) that they use will never simulate the same type of airflow of you actually rolling down the highway, so what do most dyno operators do, they will remove any engine covers (if possible), and they will always, I mean always, open the hood. Kind of how they did the second run with the stock intake, you can see the engine cover and the MINA intake on the floor, and the hood is clearly open.

What makes the video more odd, is they spent so much time showing how much heat soak occurs, by you sitting idle, guess what you're doing on a dyno, you're sitting idle with your hood closed, all you're doing is heat soaking...

I think the comparison is very flawed, but hey what do I know...
