Most of us here can discuss such matters without attacking those who have a different opinion.
Yes, 2.5 to 3% for every 1000 ft. of density altitude is pretty close for discussion purposes.

This topic has been discussed here a lot. I agree, and as Dyno Jet told me last year, a dyno is intended to measure the power output of a particular car/build in a particular city and is not intended to make an accurate correction of that car's power in Denver to sea level.
Bone stock ZL1s up here are around one second slower than Chevy advertises.
