being a five speed you wanna dyno in your closest 1:1 ratio so prob. forth gear, just back or pull on the rollers let them strap her down they'll tell you when to go head and get them turning and run her up to forth let it sit there and the'll give you the ok.... Then push the skinny pedal to through the floor... Easy as pie.

Depends on the dyno and operator. I would say, try to have your boost up pretty significantly before you start your run. Or at least be at the point that your turbos have started spooling and will light quickly once you start your run. Being able to build proper load goes a long ways.
