Default easy question about going on the dyno.

Do I need the front tow hooks on?
ie. do they need to attach braces to my hooks?

they should.

Usually Use 2straps in the back and 2 to 4 in the front.

Last thing you want is the car coming loose with a whole bunch of people standing around

They don't need to use your tow hooks....most dynos have U-straps that can attach to your control arm. I had to take my drivers side tow hook off for the charge piping with the turbo kit, and they used the U-strap on that side to attach the tie downs to.
