Kito Auto Sport (anyone know about them?) Seattle, Wa http://www.kitoautosport.com/
I saw a link to them on another site,
apperantly they have an AWD dyno (double roller)
just curious if anyone has dealt with them?

I know someone who specifically recommends them. I can get a testimonial from him directly, although I have never been there myself.

Go down NW Market in Ballard (take the I5 45th street exit towards Dicks) and continue all the way until the road merges, gets all wierd and becomes NW market. Then go down the hill, when you come to the intersection with the mcdonalds on the left, take that left and then take the next immediate left. The shop should be a block down on your right. I don't know if it is open yet though, but I know its under construction. The guys name is Kito.

I know lots of people that have gone there. Some have picked up in excess of 100hp by just changing to that dyno. Sometimes it reads low though I guess. I know a guy with a stock block 2.1L Volvo with just intercooler, bigger turbo, 18psi, tuning, over 300whp (yeah, right.) My friend with a Mustang SVO dyno'd there, put down 245 compared to 195 at blood's. When I need high fudged numbers, I know where to go!

It's a different dyno, you can't really compare them straight across. Theirs is a Mustang dyno as well, I don't think DynoJet makes AWD dynos but I could be mistaken.

We had low readings from that dyno for 3 cars. My 01' z06, my brother's sti and my friend's supra. Z06 was supposed to be around 330 rwhp, it was 307 there. Sti was around 420 awhp, it was 365 awhp there. It was a dyno day, most of the ppl complained about the dyno giving low readings.
