Default dyno

I've got an appointment with a local perfprmance shop tommorow afternoom.The guy has a repertation of being high,but good.The first thing he is going to do id dyno the car and then make reccomendations as to what to do to the car.The dyno cost $75.00.This sounds like a good approach.What do you think? :chevy

I paid $100 for three dyno pulls up here in Connecticut and I picked the technicians brain. All took about an hour.

For the most from that test, have him use a wide band O2 sensor too. This will give you valuable tuning data. Then you can measure current fuel pressure, add an AFPR and know how to set the fuel pressure for optimum power at WOT.

I paid $20 extra last fall at Raceway Park but it was well worth it to see if my AFPR was set up correctly. Both results are on my site.
