the way it tries to lift itself clean off the dyno!

i've got a shoehorn somewhere if you need it

I think you would stuggle to fit that turbo in , never mind the engine.

I wouldn't like to be there if the rollers seized up!

It's not lifting itself out of rollers, that's tyre diameter growth from speed.

If you see a standard car on the rollers hit speed, the tyres will grow but not at such a rate.
There was a dyno run of a turbo MR2 on standard tyres and it was possible to see them grow and narrow about 25mm !!

I thought the rear tyre too, but the front seems to lift by the same amound though
