That's the important fact for us.
I am aware that in the US, 335i's make nearly the same power at the wheels as the manufacturer suggests should be at the flywheel.
However......... we don't see this and quite frankly none of the european tuners see this.
Something is up with the testing of 335's in the US.
Even still, it still doesn't matter. The dyno is used to show a difference.

Dynos as you have thoroughly stated are a tool. A tool for an engine tuner to optimize the car and see what changes are made. It is not meant to scrutinize a manufacturers engine ratings.
