The difference in the numbers was not large enough to definitively say that the higher numbers were faked. That difference could easily be caused by differences in the air temperature, pressure, humidity, etc (all things that the cartek dyno sheet didnt provide, so theres no way of knowing), or simply differences between Cartek's dyno and the other two.

And for the record, I'm not defending Cartek at all (before this, I'd never even heard of them). But I am saying that it is unfair to blame the whole **** on cartek when we only have the story from one uptight, overpaying vette owner. JAEGA-BOMBS!
If you watched more attentively you would have noticed that the car dynoed 470ish WHP and then got RETUNED by a different shop and then achieved its 540whp mark. So no, it wasn't a 30whp difference which I know can be caused by ambient temp, etc. it was a 100WHP difference. Can't really blame that on small errors can you.
