I'm up for it, provided we can make timed appointments and not first come first served basis.

I will swing by to check out the setup, no pulls until the new exhaust is in.

RWD only (I wish it was 4WD/AWD)

They use a dynapack 3000, the car doesn't actually go on rollers, what they do is jack your car up, take off your rear wheels, and hook up the "dyno" to your drive shaft and you do pulls on that.

Not your conventional dyno.

My buddy with his 240 just got it done by them last week, first time I've heard of anyone using it, didn't hear any complaints.

More info on how the dyno works is on their website

I think you mean axle shafts, or for FC and FD guys half shafts.

Good setup as it takes the slippage effect out of the equation. I won't be ready quite that early, but I am planning to revisit the shop that did my old dyno run to get an apples to apples comparison.

Really! the weather might be nice, but people still need to button up the winter mods, I would like to go but I need to fix the ignition problem to start tuning the car. The dyno would be great to finish tuning, I'd be down for one later in the year, like say Mid May...

suby guys (me) call them front and rear driveshafts as we are awd...and the typical drive shaft is called a prop shaft. But yea lets just call them the things that connect the wheels to the diff.

Anyway, is there a limit on the amount of cars for the day?

thats a good price!


Dynapacks are easy to turn into 4wd, you just buy two more units. I really like the setup.

Tuning factory in michigan has one, the first place I dynoed my car on.
