Default Dyno Day @ AV Tuning and Development

Anthony asked me to spread the word. If anyone wants to show what american muscle can do, sign up and spin the wheel!

Uhh, $50.00 bucks is pretty cheap. I doubt you'll get a break on the WB. E-mail him and ask.

maybe they would be open to a 2 pull no a/f pull. money is money and some people don't need a/f.

I think he is charging based on time frame..not whether you do 2 or 3 pulls or whether he clamps the sniffer on the muffler or not.

It takes time to set-up a car on the rollers. They'd be lucky to get 2 cars on and off the dyno in an hour.

It doesn't get any cheaper than 50$ for 3 pulls..with or without WB.

Agreed but usually at most dyno days that Ive seen advertised the shop usually charges more for a A/F reading. Didnt know if that was the case here too.

I agree. Hell call any of the other dyno shops in the area and see what they say.

I know that 3 pulls for $50 with a/f has to be the best deal in town.

Powerzone has gone up on their pricing for dyno days and I can not remember about showzone

Bob also never strapped a car down. It was always club members doing all the dirty work. F THAT. I have been there many of times strapping cars down and let me tell you this, if it wasn't for 4 people doing it it would have been 2 cars instead of the 5 or so.

In my experience we are there to have fun and not work. I will not get started on that chapter of my life

that may be what happenend when you went, but when i was there it was him and his race car driver doing the strapping. he was doing 2 pulls per car, a/f price and without and like i said he did more than 2 per hour. this isn't what i heard i was there and saw. not one club member did work.
