Default Home AWD dyno

i been doing some mods to my vehicle (URs4) and been thinking how to trace the real benefits doing so.

what's your opinion of this:
- i do some mods
- make WOT runs at 3rd gear from 1900rpm to 6100rpm and take the time used between 2000 to 6000rpm
- monitor temps and A/F ratio between the runs

i compare the times and lowest one should be the the best setup?

we know stock S4 have 230hp. if time is smaller, probably you'll have more hp

Not accurately. On modified cars this doesn't seem to be accurate

Try the Gtech Pro, should be just like the drag strip conversion if you get the weight pretty close
