    Does anyone ever dyno these before installing parts? To get baseline #s? Then again after stuff has been added. And do it all on the same dyno?

    Just curious

      I do. I did that with my N54, which produces very similar numbers to the N55 in stock form, so no sense in me paying for another dyno of a stock N55. I do all my dynos locally on a DynoJet. This was an exercise in showing how much less you can squeeze out of an N55 turbo before it runs out of breath, compared to N54. Both of which I have owned, and both of which I have had identical mods on. AS well as to get my baseline of FBO on N55 before my longer-term mods start moving the needle more and I can compare to that.

            I was just interested in seeing figures from the same car, before and after.

                    About right. Waiting to figure out the whole MHD tuning situation with JB4. Also need to grab a bigger intercooler before I jump on the dyno.
