If they did much Audi tuning they wouldhave anall wheel dyno readily available,as 99% of Audis have quattro. If anything says something negative about this company (as far as tuning Audi's goes), it is that.

take the drive man, dont risk F ing up your ride just cause didnt want to drive a couple hours.... I have never heard of a dyno shop do anything to a car because it was awd and they only had it for one axel. Plus, if inmotion is paying for you to do it... get a discount off the chip or try to get them to pay for the hassle of driving there

The way it is working with InMotion is that they are giving me the chip for free IF i go and have the car dynoed before and after. Then they are going to use the numbers from the dyno to use as advertising and marketing purposes. And I would do the drive thing, but it would be almost 20Hrs of driving for both the before and after. Thats WAY to much and A LOT of gas!!!!

Because you need to run at least 1 tank of gas through it before you re dyno so your car gets used to it.

I would have to agree with them....take the drive and don't risk your Audi! I actually got lucky as hell as far as Dyno shops go....I found out tonight that the only awd dyno in town is 10 minutes from me, so hopefully I can put up #'s soon. But anyway, I wouldn't try disconnecting a diff. You want to know what your car is really puttin out anyway. If you are only running two weheels, you won't know what real gain you get out of the chip anyway, so what would be the point of a before and after??
