A dyno is a tool - it is not gospel, it is not an indisputable truth, it is simply a comparitive snapshot of the car at that point in time. There is no one dyno that is more accurate as far as peak power is concerned, than another. Any of them have a variety of variables that can be manipulated by the operator Any one of 'em, regardless of brand. The dyno is relative unto itself, that is it. That is why when doing a build, keeping the car on the same dyno, at the same shop, regardless of what kind of dyno that shop uses, is the preferred method, as you get a good gauge of your relative gains or losses compared to previous runs. The key word being relative. If your car stock makes 100 whp, and after mods, your car on that dyno makes 150whp, it does not mean the car has 150whp, nor does it mean you gained 50whp with your mods. What it does mean is that the mods you did netted you a substantial, significant gain, and that is what is important. Comparing dyno x at one location, vs dyno x at a different location is nice for ***** and giggles, but it's virtually useless as far as any sort of quantitative data. Unless you know for a fact that the 2 dynos have been calibrated by the owners to read similarly (many shops in a given area will do this). Comparing dyno x to dyno y is just as useless. Still fun to look at, but hard to draw real comparitive data.
Amen dude.

Coming from someone who is not as technically knowledgeable but who enjoys his Z in many different fashions, I would ask the OP, what is your definition of having a fast car? Do you want a fast street car? Are you looking for a fast drag car Do you auto-x or track it? For the most part, each requires a little bit different kind of setup.
