Question Places for dyno test in Bay Area?

Anyone know of any places in the Bay that do dyno testing? I'd like to see what I'm running before I get an RTek in the near future and start tweaking the settings.

Thanks!

I'd call some of the shops in the Norcal shop thread. and see what's up. I know Rick's Rotary does not have one.

I have found places on craigslist myself. You should look there. I know there is a place here in Santa Clara that charges about $100 for 3 passes. Rather pricey for my taste.

Go to RedZone in San Jose. They are like $180 an hour and they say it usually doesn't take more than an hour to tune and they don't limit the dyno pulls as far as I know. They run it til they get it right is what it sounded like last time I called

MOCCforums organizes some group dyno days. No tuning, just baseline pulls. It was $40 bucks for 3 runs w/AFR's last time I went to one in Livermore. You'll be there all day waiting for your turn, though. Just depends what your time is worth and if you want to wait for someone else to get one together.

Nope, not at Autozone. One of the guys behind the counter has a blue vert, though.
