Tempting. 2 hour plus drive for me. Even with fuel calculated that's a good deal.

If you dyno'd your car on another dynamometer your numbers won't be the same as before because each machine is setup by their owners.

Heck, most places use their dyno to make it look like the bolt on part's they just sold you gained you 20 horsepower which is easily done by changing the variables in the program.

IE. I can make a stock honda civic have 300 horsepower just by playing with the software for the machine

Useless to just dyno your car for kicks if your never going to use that exact businesses machine again.
They do these "dyno day" get togethers to generate some quick and easy business so you think you really got something, they try to feed you BS about how they can do this and that and run your car again after their "upgrades" and it "gained" another 5 or 10 horsepower...


Besides that if you really wanted a true number you wouldn't be trying to use a junky mustang dyno and using it's readings as fact for your engine's performance, more like a really rough estimate and depends on how well the machine was setup.
