I think that Lee's Performance Center in Charlotte, NC would be the best place to get the test. They do ALL of NASCAR. Their dyno is built into the ground. It even has a wind tunnel that will blow your arm off if you put outside the window (Lee's words). This will give the wind effect on the HP ratings, a real world test. He said that they are the gurus of the dyno. The cost for NASCAR is $200 hr to establish a base line and $200 per hour tuning. The cost for street is $100 per hour to establish a base line and $100 per hour tuning (changing out parts, adjustments: timing, fuel pressure, etc.). I would think total time would be no more than two hours (I will keep it to this).
I will use money from the CD-ROM to offset costs. Price now will be set at $20 per CD-ROM IF there are at least 20 people to buy it. If possible, I would like half now, to afford the dyno testing, then the remaining balance when CD-ROM is delivered. Email me for my address. IF you do not want a CD-ROM but would like to help in defraying Dyno costs, all contributions are welcome.
