I don't see why it would be difficult. Any AWD dyno should be able to handle it. Matix Engineering down in Portland can do it and I'm sure there's a place near SEA too.

M3's and M5's also had an issue like this. I believe a fuse was pulled to enable the run? Dinan would know.

That's a good idea!
Having both, 4.6is and 4.8is I bought myself M6 and don't bother myself for a few HP gains.
