I am going to a dyno shop soon but I have no idea how to do a dyno as I have never done it before. My car is automatic,so do I just floor it or what do?

Someone at the shop will handle this for you. You will just sit back, watch and enjoy. :headbang:

I've heard of other members running into problems, engine light, etc after a dyno. Is this normal or what should I expect?

You normally turn off traction control/advanceTrack before they start the runs.

The auto should be dynoed in 4th gear as the manuals are done in 5th.

Unless there is some strange phenomenon with the Ecobeasts, you shouldn't have any problems unless something breaks or goes wrong. Make sure you have some good gas in it would be my only advice.

Thanks. Planning to fill with 94 octane gas.

Why are you going for a dyno? Did you mod your can in anyway or are you doing a tune?

To test the new exhaust system. It's a prototype so they want to know the performance gains.

Prototype for what kit??? Do tell!

Prototype all new exhaust design, and parts (cannot go into detail) that nobody has on the market to make a 4 cylinder sound like a V8. Serious.

Lol I'm serious. Sound like they swapped my ecoboost with a V8 under the hood
