Try DC performance aka Abbott automotive. You can choose from either a 2wd dynojet or dynapack, and also have a 4wd dynapack available. They have packages available for dyno runs.
Theres also Gintani.
Wicked Motorpsorts in Van Nuys might also have a dyno available.
Any will do.

We have a DynoDynamics dyno at our shop. Let me know if you want to come in!

i agree with Drew... Seb is the man and knows how to Dyno the E92 from many different customers on this board.

Been to Specialty Z, courtesy of PencilGeek .. Nice ppl

Dave07997S · 11-29-2010, 06:17 PM

Guys I found a dyno close to me that I used to use during my Mustang days. It is a dynojet. Is anything special needed to dyno the S65 motor, ala S54 powerplant that needed to be put in dyno mode. Or is it pretty much just strap up connect and dyno. I am going to try and get this done tomorrow.

I am getting a xpipe with no cats installed tomorrow so I want to get the baseline dyno done before I do this. I will re-dyno again a week or so later so full adaption can take place, then I will install the AFE Stg. 2 CAI and see what kind of results this gives and post up.

i'm looking forward to seeing the gains on the dyno....keep us posted!

the afe stage 2 intake looks tempting for me..but not sure if the gains will be compared to stock.....

we'll soon find out!

Thanks guys...see my post about my dynos in another thread. I dyno'd at Swanson Performance. I used them before during my Mustang days. Danny the owner use to own a 2006 M5 and he also had a 06 E46 M3, although he tunes Mustangs all day. He really likes BMWs but makes a living tuning Fords. Swanson Performance is in the Torrance/Gardena area if anyone wants to dyno their cars, they are just 7 miles from where I live. Gintani and a lot of the other places means I have to go to the "Valley"...j/k. He can also do some work as well. I have seen 750+rwhp cars being tuned there.

I do have to say the new dyno room at Gintani is pretty sick

Green///Hell · 12-01-2010, 10:10 PM

Knowing myself I wouldn't go to Gintani to Dyno....

I'd be way too tempted to buy one of their SC's on the spot once my numbers came up short
