    Looking at setting up an engine dyno to test my own stuff, mostly testing turbo kits, variations in kit design, etc etc.

    I'm after some advice from people who have used an engine dyno, what they thought of it, things to watch out for, which parts they like more than others, etc.

    Thinking a stuska xs211 brake unit, and a data package from one of the many providers that do them. The rest would be pieced together and built by myself.

    Smartest thing you could ever do is talk to Steve Morris as he has a custom Stuska set-up at his Engine Building/ Testing shop with his business partner Kyle Kirker.

    First class deal and they know all the tricks.

    Tell him Tom Vaught sent you his way.
