that ll depends on your idea of an Awd dyno. there is hte dyno pac which bolts on in place of ur wheels... butt uhh. that thing is junk man. of course just ebcause its an awd dyno, doesnt mean you cant run fwd or rwd... so really you gotta wonder if there are enough cars in the area willing to d yno to paty for the machine. let me tell you dyno's are not cheap. anything less than a dynojet awd is pretty much worthless. mustang dyno's suck. any dyno with 2 pinch rollers suck. the high mass rollers on teh dynojet 248's are pretty nice.. but you cant do certain types of testing. eddy current dynos allow you to load theengine and hold it at one constant speed... making tuning a bit easier. but then again.. how any people are going to want to actually tune there cars like that? {steady state?} i dot know which dyno yall would be looking at...buty id def. stear clear of tryin to get a "BUDGET" setup.

dynojet = good. ive sen and used lots of other dyno's and with the exception of a superflow one {i was or motorcycles} dynojet has always remained a fav.

Yes. There's a shitlod of AWD drive vehicles around the 757 alone, not to mention the WEstern guys and Central guys. There is no doubt you would have a waiting list fo this thing for months. Go for it.

250 bucks a day would never cover your cost much less make the dyno profitable for the purchaser.
