MD-500 Series Overview
MD-500 – PERFECT IF YOU PLAN TO UPGRADE TO AN AWD DYNE
For those shops that wish to ease into the dynamometer performance tuning market one step at a time, Mustang offers a perfect solution. The MD-500 dyno. An excellent 2WD performance dyno in and of itself, the MD-500 is simply one-half of the MD-AWD-500 system. The MD-500’s multiple upgrade paths allow it to accept Mustang’s AWD upgrade in the future and also enable it to accept a second eddy current PAU for increased loading capability should you ever feel the need to expand your testing capabilities. With 1,500-hp measurement capacity, the MD-500 can handle high performance front wheel and rear wheel drive vehicles. If your shop caters to the motorcycle market too, the MD-500 series can be purchased with the optional motorcycle adaptor kit. The 500-SE offers a compact frame with a narrow 80-inch outer track and is great for shops with limited space that mainly focus on passenger cars and smaller pick up trucks.
