If so would you use a torque or amp load and what would you suggest for settings ?
Would you have to change the profile to make it work ?
Thanks.
Yes you can do it although I dont advise it as its really hard on the motor since the slave motor doesnt put nearly the load a car does. Just do it the same way you do it without the boost profile. One thing you will need to do is probably turn the voltage down and dyno it at 5 volts as the boost really adds a lot of amp draw and usually will turn the dyno off once it hits a load (30 or 45 amps depending on your dyno). I always use torque steps too as it makes it easier to compare motors as its read off of a sensor (Cradle sensor) and not a variable such as amps.
