    Xtreme autos in waterford used to have one (they might still have), it will make you feel really good about yourself and your car :D

    EDIT: Just being smart is no help sorry, the best rolling roads in the country are Westward and Couture autos, In Enfeild and Dunboyne respectively - worth the drive up for an accurate read out on your cars health.

    What kind of car is it? Is it 2wd/4wd?

    Thanks man, its an AWD Mazda6 MPS, i just want to get an accurate read to see how many of the 256 horsies have been left out of the pen since 2007... also as a baseline before doing anything to it to boost performance.

    Cheers, Westward rings a bell, might give them a shout.

    4wd cars can be hit and miss on rollers, i don't know what system is in the MPS but the 2 4wd cars i got rolled were a Bora and an S3 both are haldex based and i pulled the fuse for the haldex to run them in 2wd it's deemed the best way internationally to get an accurate reading,other wise the car and power levels can dance around abit as the car transfers power to the rear and back again as it tries to get it's footing on the dyno.

    Since all dynos give different results the amount you lost can never be found out, along with most manufacturers quoting crank results so a good bit is lost in the drivetrain. Good idea to baseline to check for improvement.
