Is there a 50/50 power distribution for the AWD 1g's? I just bought mine a few weeks ago. My cousin asked me this question and I have no clue.

Nope. It varies. The only way to get 50/50 is with a spooled/welded center diff.

The reason i ask is, there is a guy near my cousins house in Hubertus that has a dyno but it is only a 2 wheel. He said he has dyno'd an awd converted focus or something to that effect, by dropping the driveshaft.
But if you dont know what kind of power transfer you have from front to rear, how can it be accurate? Or will the resulting hp/torque be correct even without the rear driveline hooked up?

You can not dyno an AWD DSM without locking the center diff or viscous coupling. Doing so would damage the center differentail and possibly other parts in the driveline.
