What gear do most people dyno in on the 6MT 370?

Do most people dyno the 6MT in 4th or 5th? I'm guessing 5th gear since it's the closest to 1:1 ratio?

Some dynos can't handle the top speed in 5th so it has to be done in 4th.

4th or 5th. On an interia style dyno, like DynoJet it's important to use 5th gear which is the 1:1 ratio. On most load based dynos, the gear choice makes no difference in measured power output.

On the 7 AT, use 4th.

Your very right the DynoJet I was on today did my dyno in 4th.
But like you said some of the dyno machines are not guaranteed at these speeds.
