[eastsidesuby19]

I went there last December, Dyno day...dudes are pretty cool. Not sure of the head guys name, But there all pretty chill guys. I think its like 85 for four pulls, with A/F

[StealthTC]

Made 2 appts to have my car dynoed there, both occasions I show up and there was a "scheduling" issue.
I went to CARv2 in Delaware, 3 runs for $75 on the Dynamometer with A/F
Not too sure about the AWD dyno if you have a GSX.

Good place we had an event there last year. Had a group rate on the dyno. I would recomend it!!!

[TalonTsi97]

I been there at least 8 times, dynoed twice and had friends dyno. Nothing but good things to say. They go out of there way to help anyone, i seen them do some very generous things.

Other than trying to taking out my ignition cartidge while my car was running they were good. Actually it's a very easy mistake to make as my car is strange that way and I don't blame them at all. Good people, I'd recommend them, just watch them if you've got a SAAB.

I remember when that happened, you were like No. They were like Yes. You were like No, trust me. lol

Im asking because my buddy dynooed his near stock wrx, and his dyno numbers read something like 218hp, and 392 torque. WHICH is WAY off.

They are very good guys. Richy and Eric go out of their way to help you. I held a dyno day there when I flew mase up to tune my race car and other cars. We had issues with my motor and I had to pull my head. They not only let me pull my head at their shop and use all of their tools they also helped which they totally did not have to. We did not could not get the head back on the car that night and I had to come down on Sunday which was Mothers day. They were not even planning on being opened. They opened the shop so I could finish up the head and threw the car back on the dyno and we tuned for hours.

They also bought everyone at the dyno day food and drinks which again they did not need to.

Just remember a dyno is supposed to be used a tuning tool not as a penis measuring tool. If you want that go out and run your car and see what your trap speed is. I see tons of people that post high dyno numbers then go out and run their car and their trap speed is no where near what the dyno said they were making.

I usually go to xotic, but there prices have gone up alot. I just need an hour to tune my car, with realistic corrrect #'s.

Me and eric talked all about this, most places would never do anything like that for you.
My buddy dyoned there but and his torque numbers were up but they said it was cause of the signal the plug wires gave. I seen a few cars come out with more toque then it looked but i seen more cars come out fine then with soemthign that looked off.

Edit: I don't care enought to fight about how accurate PDW's dyno is.

lol im doubtin that, from a lot of cars i seen that put out exactly what was expected and even dynoing my car at xotic and then at pdw. Im pretty sure its good.
There prices are great, the owners are really cool, and its a very relaxed place. I have nothing bad to say bout xotic either, but pdw is so close and have a lot of good things going for it. I say if your in no major rush to have it dynoed then come to the philadelphiadsm dyno day in november and see for yourself, then maybe even throw it on that day.

[D Money]

I never said the shop or owners weren't cool. I have also heard that they are a stand up place and good to work with. All I said was that their dyno reads high, even the thread started stated his buddies stock wrx dyno'd 215whp and 390wtq which is way wrong. A stock wrx maybe puts down 170whp and close to that in wtq.

[jc8889]

When I dyno, I want to have accurate #'s
