Hypersports has a regular dyno and a piece to convert a WRX to front wheel drive. Don't know if it works for the STI. No AWD dyno that I know of.

Since we're on this topic, does anyone have suggestions for a place to road tune without endangering others?

hey guys, i was SERIOUSLY thinking about this issue with no awd dyno here on oahu. i wanted to open up a business for "us guys with awd" but when i found out the price difference between the awd dyno and for the regular dyno, i was shocked. i got sorta a catalog from dynojet stating that a regular dyno costs around 20k. ok, the awd dyno will run 60k. now i know why peeps down here only get the regular dyno. 40k difference. if anyone wants to see the catalog, pm me with email.

A first I didn't plan on reving beyond 8.5k rpm, but Quirt has convinced me that our block is much sturdier than what many people believe. Contact him and find out exactly what I mean.
