Power Measurement
on a 4WD Dyno
Accurate power and torque measurements. Result verification before and after chip tuning.
Our DYNOMAX4000 4x4 operates synchronously across all axles, providing stable load and reliable data for front-wheel, rear-wheel, and all-wheel drive vehicles. This is the only objective way to evaluate the effectiveness of chip tuning and engine modifications.
As a result, you get real, verified figures, smooth calibration under load, and confidence that the engine is operating safely and efficiently.
Power measurement on a 4WD dyno — accurate and honest results
A dynamometer (Dyno) is the only way to determine the real power and torque your vehicle actually produces. We perform measurements on a 4WD all-wheel-drive dyno with a load-controlled brake, which allows us to obtain highly accurate data even for high-power and AWD vehicles.
At AUTOCHIP.LV, the dyno is not used “just for show”, but as a core tool for control, calibration, and result verification — before and after chip tuning.
DYNOMAX4000 4x4 — professional-level measurements
We use the DYNOMAX4000 4WD Dyno — a synchronised dynamometer with an electromagnetic load brake that simulates real driving conditions: acceleration, resistance, inclines, and load under torque.
- Power and torque measurement at the wheels
- Calculation of drivetrain losses
- Data correction according to ISO / SAE standards
- Consideration of air temperature and atmospheric pressure
- Data acquisition directly via OBD
Why dyno testing is important
Vehicles often do not match their claimed power figures, especially after “garage tuning” or uncontrolled software modifications. A dyno reveals the real picture instead of relying on driving impressions.
- Honest figures without guesswork or marketing
- Result verification before and after chip tuning
- Detection of power losses and unstable operation
- Safe calibration under real load conditions
How the power measurement is performed
- Step 1: initial power and torque measurement
- Step 2: ECU tuning or adjustment (optional)
- Step 3: control run and stability verification
This approach provides a real, verified result, not just a “feeling that it got better”.
Pricing and booking
4WD dyno power measurement — from €50 + VAT
The final price depends on the vehicle type and scope of work.
⚠️ Testing is not possible for vehicles with studded tyres.
