a cheap dyno

im looking for a place on the sunny coast that do dyno tuning thats relatively cheap, barnes high performance is $79 just for a run on the dyno whihc i thought was a rip off so im wondering if any of you guys know a good place to have a run on the dyno?

cheers

i went to chapmans for just a power run, cost me about $70 for 3 runs.

i have heard that barnes aren't that great but that is just what i have heard from a couple of people, im not baggin them,

but ur best bet may be just to take it to a dyno comp and stick it on there as their prices are usually lower (i did one cost me $35 for 2 runs) and u might even get the prize for least power!!!!


haha

where abouts do they hold these comps? (and thanks for that sharpy, but i kinda hope i dont win the prize for least power haha)

pm'd

Go barnes if you have a v8.

Chapmans I wouldn't take my car there.

I go to coastal dynos In bribie ...

And a good dyno tuner would charger 100$ a hour. So $79 Is cheap...
also dave why do you need to tune your car??

i think he just wants to know wat its got, not tune it, so sharpys idea FTW, you want to see if you got more POWA than me ay bro 99.3 HP YEWW beat that

Justin: i dont need it tuned i just want to see what it will run atw after the exhaust

anthony: silvias run 100hp atw stock so yeah...

dave, Just my 2 cents it's a waste of cash doing a dyno run..

You can basically work it out if there 100hp then what ever the xhaust set up is worth in hp... it's not worth 100+ dollars.. when it's stock..

Just my thoughts man.

orrrr, you could go to a dyno comp and pay $35 or $40 just for a power figure, and then start your mods so u have a before and after.

definately dont need to pay near $100 just for power run

yeah im just interested is all which is why ill be goin to that comp hopefully, id just like to have something to show people just exactly what the power of my car is, cos guys at work n shit try to tell me other things so i just want some proof.

why spend the money for a basically stock read out?

doesn't make sense to me! Maybe for a tune yes. for a read out no.

just to satisfy curiosity, and also its interesting if u are performing mods, to see what sort of gains you are having.

i did a power run made 162kw at the rears and then fixed an exhaust leak and went to a dyno comp and made 170kw at the rears

was that money worth it to see 8kws haha..

it's a joke.. but if u's want to waste cash then up to u..

but i'll save that cash and do mods and make 2x the power ..

it was $35, i fixed the exhaust leak myself so that only cost me the cost of a gasket and my time, plus all the fat pizza boys were at the dyno comp, and promo chicks and some f'in awesome cars, plus i won a dvd, hat and 2 free tickets to jambo (both days) so yes, i would say it was well worth the money

hahaha.. righto can't you afford those things.

this thread is closed.. dave make another man..

certain ppl wreck em..
