Lightbulb Long Island NY/tristate area Dyno Opportunity.

Pulling into a local performance shop with a dynojet dyno and after speaking with the owner he offered to set up a testing day on a Sunday just for 928 owners interested in making it part of a fun day get together. I figured that some of us could benefit from this if we planned on making any modifications to our cars in the near future, were currently working on some changes now, or wanted to know where to start. We would have use of a great tool, a well trained dyno tech..that specializes in performance tuning for the racing/street driver crowd, and an opportunity to meet up with local 928 owners. There would be a min.of 2 runs offered for each car with AFM logging. Price seemed very good for a small group to start.. the more interested the lower the cost.. Afterwards we could take a drive to a popular watering hole to go over our results?...We would need at least 8 cars min. to start and can reserve our day August 19/26. ?

+1 where will it be and what is the price per car if we can get 8?

I'd love to get an idea where my car is right now (I know it's way ahead of my skills, but I just want to know how far ).

I'll jump in .Hope the thing does't make me cringe at it's numbers ...what have I been doing all along? I guess it may explain why something went / blew past me the other day sooo fast I could not recognise it....darn it I thought, I need a blower, whatever it was made me believe in aliens and see myself as possibly having( .316 )hp I went home and did not speak to anyone for the rest of the day.

Arrow Dyno info/sign up Long Island NY

Ok once we decide on which of the Sundays works best for us I can reserve that day at the shop. Two runs is $75 with air fuel metering (good for those that are SC).. Drop me a PM with your name/contact info. and which one or both of these dates works. After I get enough responses I will post the best day for us all and make the necessary arrangements . ... For more info on this shop you can go to their web site..(no affiliation with them ) at
