This is just guessing, but I would have thought it would be 15 minutes work 
to disconnect the front/back drive shaft, carry out the dyno test using the 
front wheels only and then another 15 minutes to connect up the drive shaft 
again.

Obviously it wouldn't take rear diff losses into consideration, but it would 
certainly show performance gains.

Centre diff would have to be locked - no problem for manual locking cars. 
 Not sure what Torsens would do.
