Arent dynos supposed to give you some kind of a HP reading? whenever I took my Miata to one I usually walked away with a HP reading. Maybe they have calibrated ass dynos to go along with it?:shrug:

These where not set up to give hp readings but to be able to tune the vehicle while sitting still. Pretty innovative I think. The only problem would be the load is constant and doesnt likely represent real driving loads the vehicle would encounter but I am sure it gets them in the ballpark enough to fine tune it on the street. Not sure about the exhaust location though and whats up with that interior. I know its a "race car" but quite cluttered.

was it just me or was the front tires not secured? it looks like that thing could fly off at any moment.

I noticed that too. Looks to be tied down to the axle/ dyno:) only. Guess it works.... just doesnt look to stable.
