Iv been looking around at chassis dyno's more and more, I have been very tempted to make the investment to buy my own dyno instead of renting dyno time at another shop but it is a huge investment. We are talking the price of a luxury car and thats for a fairly cheap dyno. So the question is would you pay more for tuning? price would be on par what other shops charge but somewhat cheaper than what iv quoted for dyno tuning in the past. Id really like to hear from you guys and gals.

Holy crap monkeys a dyno would be a huge investment. Plus you gotta think insurance and stuff in case something goes wrong. Better would be a good welder so you can do more than just exhaust! You might be able to rent a dyno from a shop; like rent part of the shop each month or something.

Yea you do so you can install my SOSI X-Pipe and weld up my rear muffler :D
How much is a dyno going to cost you? I see several people in the M3 club bought their own but nobody posted a price. BTW, when are we going to hang out again cracker? I am relatively free on the weekends if you want to grab a beer sometime.

Wait so you're going to be renting a place? You moving out??
I need a roommate man, something 2-3 bedrooms and a garage. The place where I used to live was 3 bedrooms and a two car extended garage for 1500 a month. If I could stop spending for a few months I could get a house... Coming up with 20k for a down payment has been harder than I first thought.

Yeah man, laying low. Been busy with softball leagues and car crap as always. I got the TC curse right now =( Went to replace my lift support for the hatch and smashed my window out and put a dent into my quarter panel. That was stage 1 lol. Now i have an HID out and two LEDs out in the car. Not to mention im lucky to have my car running. The supercharger tore itself up. Was driving down 10 and was like wtf....sluggish response then my supercharger went to the dentist to get some teeth drilled (down like 100 hp now). (greatest analogy i could think of). Well on a plus note im getting 30MPG again on reg fuel =0.....Hey think you can rebuild the supercharger? It is gonna need some bearings and impeller for sure. Or within a year i can wait to go full boost, or trade it in which is what im thinking. Wither a BRS, FRS, or STI, or the CRZ-R if it will make it to the states.
