MD Performance Center engine dyno
Anyone have any experience with them? They are located in Fredrick MD. Called today and they are charging $880 for a day on the dyno. Drop engine off on a Monday and they have it ready to go in day or two on their setup and then go in for a full day dyno session. Price includes tuning, but no parts changes...etc.
I have only ever used a chassis dyno (HP Works/Colonial Beach, VA), so don't know if this is typical pricing..etc. Sounds good to me from what they said on the phone. Any other engine dyno facilities in DMV area that anyone would recommend? Any gotchas that you can think of for a day on the dyno...ie. extras you should have brought, tools, kits..etc. TIA |

dumb question. Do you take your own headers to the engine dyno, or do they have their own setups?

It is best to dyno and get wideband o2 data,you will need o2 bungs in the headers,prefferable in all cylinders.Bill C.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
