Dyno question

I may be dynoing my 06 with the Injen CAI, Cattman Y pipe and the SS exhaust and need to know what gear is the best for the dyno/1:1 ratio.
Any advice from previous dyno'ers appreciated!

Probably 3rd for the auto, maybe 4th. Definitely 4th for the 6MT.

Agree, when I do mine, 3rd and 4th are my choices.

Maybe even further since some tachs tend to be off.

According to my 05 shop manual, 5th is 1.018:1 on AT. I did my dyno on 3rd gear to redline. I figured the speed limiter would kick in before redline if I used the 5th gear. Manual mode shifts a bit sooner than A/T mode for some reason.
