ummm garage GT is off convoy near the JBA speedshop, they dyno all the evos and subs and supras in the redline time attacks... have a very legitimate tuner in my opinion, everett he has always tuned my cars and he works there now they are a tad expensive i think due to the level of cars they deal with but worth the money for the expertise... thats just my opinion though

P.S everett is AEM EMS certified.. out of a class of tuners that take the course noly a few get offically AEM certified !!
how much is baseline dyno?

What kind of dyno do they use at GT or dynomite? I might get a baseline before I finish my stroker.

ok so i just talked to my friend everett and GT Garage is out, he actully quit becasue he found out that the managers were playing with dyno correction to give the customers bigger numbers he found out when a car made way more horsepower than it should have so he went into the control panel and sure enough the correction was off, he is a legitimate tuner sooo he quit to not jeopardize his reputation

man i really wanna get this dyno day cracking !! anyone have any other suggestions ???

I'm down for a dyno day...Just need a baseline run, though. I've been looking into this for a little while, just havn't pulled the trigger yet.

A while back, and by a while back I mean in the summer of '08, I also went in to talk to the guys in the Dyno Shop (Santee). They also quoted me $120 for 2-3 pulls(I forget). When I asked them about the price being so high?!! They pointed me towards a website that they sponsor or something, Dynoformance.com or .net or something in that vecinity, and said If I was to sign up over there it would be around $50-$60 for a couple pulls. The website hosts dyno days once a month or so and would be beneficial for someone trying to get a baseline mostly...Not tuning(tuning takes time and "dyno days" fill up pretty quick).

Able to look into it all a little more if you all would like? Dyno shop is a couple miles from my place so it would be no trouble.

Will do, as soon as u pm me you cell number again...Got another new phone and yada yada yada(u know how it goes)...Anyways, lost quite a few numbers and only retained the last couple month's worth. U might like to see what else I've done to the ride...done a couple of things since you've last seen it.

Back on topic, though...

I know of 3 dyno shops...

1. Dyno shop in Santee
2. GT Shop on Convoy...Apperantly their reputation sucks ass at the moment from what I've read on this thread
3. One in Oceanside, I think. It's been years since I've been there back when I had the sentra. I do remember that parking sucked over there. Had to park on the street and it was a saturday so everyone was home and we had to park 2 blocks away for those that could find parking.
