Something would be pretty wrong for that not to be the case because the differences between units would tend to average out over a 20+ minute test.
A few watts difference would be normal however - just as you'd likely see a difference between any two DFPM units.

The real question is: Is your FTP the same on the road as it is on a trainer? This is what I intend to find out. IBike Newton and Issac are an awesome tools for cycling minds.
