Anyone from North London/Herts? I think I may fancy this. Would be interested to see what the R32 actually puts down. I found a sticker on the inside of the drivers door with "150ps"  :fighting: :fighting: :fighting: :fighting:

Hmm, on my 10 days rota, so can come to this ( SWMBO pass required though!). Bit of a trek, but always a great day.....and this one may actually be above freezing! :laugh:

Would be good to compare my last run there too.

John, if you're going I assume its a 4WD dyno?  :drinking:

I may be tempted  :innocent:

Nah they just pull the plug on the haldex. They did John's and a few other S3's at the last dyno day.

Unlike JKM, they can dyno a 4wd car  :ashamed:

Neither can dyno a genuine 4WD car however both can dyno a car with a Haldex.

JKM choose not to as the results are never ideal and if you wonder why just touch the Haldex unit afterwards it will be red hot.  :happy2:

^^ sorry Ian, by 4WD I meant Haldex. Although you could remove the prop on a proper 4WD car (not on a dyno day with a queue of cars behind)

I don't understand the mechanics of the box, but the dyno should remove the haldex losses like it does with a standard gear box to work out the flywheel figure. As we all know flywheel figures are just from calculations of wheel figures.

The fact that many people dyno haldex cars and I've never heard of a failure as a result of it, I'm not sure what the problem is? Open to a lesson in haldex mechanics and the dangers of dynoing in 2wd mode from any specialists. It's not really been discussed on this forum. . .

R-Tech will do it as they have a lift in front of the dyno. JKM wont do it for several reasons, and im sure one of those is they cant be fecked scrambling on the floor to remove the haldex doofer thingy bob!.
