Laying the Foundation Before embarking on any performance-enhancing modifications, we commenced with a comprehensive pre-dyno inspection to ensure the vehicle’s mechanical integrity. Our commitment to delivering optimal results hinges on starting with a solid foundation. Once satisfied, we strapped the Landcruiser onto our dyno and conducted the initial test run.

The baseline figures revealed an output of 162.7 horsepower (HP) and 334.6 Newton-meters (Nm) of torque at the wheels, reflecting the stock configuration’s performance.
