Tuning list:

1. Cowsniperrx7 (Deposit Recieved)




__________________________________________________ ______________




DYNO INFORMATION

Dyno time is $80/Hr

Address is:



Still shopping dyno locations.



Dyno List:

1. Cowsniperrx7


__________________________________________________ ______________

Everyone needs to make a checklist before Steve Kan arrives. This is what he said in an earlier post.

"Here're some items to inspect/replace before the dyno. New plugs (less than 1k miiles), new fuel filter (less than 5k miles), inspect spark plug wires, oil change, full tank of whatever gas you normally run, inspect tires (no nails or anything that can fly out during the dyno), inspect coolant fluid (change if necessary), clean air filter, put all the mods in that you plan to run before coming to the dyno (I don't think there'll be enough time to install them on the same day)."


If you want to be added to the list, please let me know asap.

The previous shop (Tuxedo Park Racing) with the Dynapack has closed down.

I have several Dyno's lined up but I'm still feeling them out. Last time, we were rushed by the dyno owner. He just couldn't understand why it took so long to tune a rotary.

Either way, I'm getting shitfaced and doing a burnout.

Damnit, I guess it's best that GIF didn't show up.

What color are you painting it?

Also, what turbo did you order?

Dyno fees are by the hour and go to the shop, not to Steve. It depends on how much time you'll be spending on the dyno. Generally the simpler setup the less time you'll need, but not always the case.

It's normally $80/hr. So, plan on two hours.
