I was in the same boat for years until lockdown during which I best my outdoor numbers. Maybe it's a specificity thing. Previously, as I'm sure you're all aware, I've done loads of outdoor miles and turbo was only a 1-2 sessions a week thing. Lockdown had me on the turbo every day, often multiple sessions a day.
This is true, but I can never match the numbers I can do outside on the road on a turbo. It's definitely not calibration issues - the numbers are within +/- 1% comparing the trainer to the power meter. But outside my FTP is at least 10% higher than it is outdoors. Maybe I need a bigger fan...
