If you are referring to Engine Dynos, our team uses a water brake dyno and it seems to work out quite well. It allows us to do both frame and engine development concurrently.

My recommendation is to use the find feature on the forum and take a look at what other people use. Our system worked for us with our current engine choice, etc.

We use the D-100 from Go-Power Dynamometer.

We use a land-and-sea DYNOmite snowmobile dyno, model #075-200-?k. I am not sure which options or turbine we have in it, but if you talk to them they can help you out.

We share ours with the snowmobile team, and have some issues with low RPM usage.

It is nice because it is small and portable. And at around $5,000 it is hard to beat.
