Well there's the factor of use and abuse as well prior to getting each car on a dyno. I also think there are a fair amount of human touches on each complete car. Then there is material and environmental differences during production. But between hand built and robot built entities I would say the chance of conformity is stacked in favour of the robots with a large amount. Last but not least are SW updates and configuration tuning of ECU,DME and robots.
