What is dyno testing?

A dyno test helps identify issues like power loss, underboost, or incorrect fuelling, and is also used to verify performance after a remap or hardware upgrade. At VGS, we use this data to give you a real picture of how your VW, Audi, Skoda or Cupra is running — no guesswork, no inflated numbers.
Dyno testing is the process of measuring your car’s power output using a controlled set of rollers, often referred to as a rolling road. It calculates brake horsepower (bhp), torque, and other engine metrics across the rev range, showing exactly how your car performs under load.

What we offer

We run a Hub Dyno setup at our Swindon workshop, suitable for both 2WD and Haldex 4WD vehicles. All runs include cooling fans, data logging and post-run analysis.
