I have another question please if the OP does not mind...

Is there anything else we need to do other than disabling traction control when we dyno the car??

Where I want to go with this question is that I went to a shop which has a Mustang dyno. He always starts the run of the car he's dynoing from an rpm of 4000. When I asked him why, he said that when he has the car at a lower rpm and then goes WOT the gear automatically shifts one or two gears lower. Of course the cars on test I watched were automatics. However I noticed that almost all the runs I see in this forum starts from around 2500 rpm. Does this have to do with the setup of the car before dynoing?
