If you like Vipers, I'd check out Heffner's in Glen Burnie. All these guys work on is Vipers, have a **** ton of them just sitting around, some of the sickest ones I've ever seen. It's some nice eye candy while your car is being dyno'd.

True... but no matter how much eye candy... some customers don't like how their car ends up after 3 dyno runs... just my luck cool place though.

yo cobra... woodbridge dynotech might be a bit closer for you. They used to be in woodbridge but moved further south to Faquier county, so that would be your closest bet I think. I haven't used them but got a few price quotes from them, and were pretty much right on what everyone else quoted. Some others have said they do good work as well. Might want to check them out, can't hurt www.woodbridgedynotech.com . Also, you might want to PM MightyMouse on here. I believe he lives near the Richmond area (or in it) and could help you out a bit.
