Most dyno days I've seen were 3 pulls, no air/fuel $50, with air/fuel $75.

Default Cancel it!

You might as well cancel it now....the price is way too high!

Wouldn't SLP want to attract customers to their facility?

From a business standpoint, this is not about the dyno. Rather, it would be about getting people in the door to buy parts!

What a strange business model you guys have!

Way to high for a dyno day. Figure it would be free to get people to come by.

No one expects it to be free but dyno days with a few currant sponsors have been in the $40.00- $75.00 range for atleast 3 pulls with wideband.

After the other post about how SLP was back in the market and looking to be a resource, it's sad to see them price it this way. I wonder what the justification is for the high price. What makes their dyno that much better than the 5 or 6 other dynos within 1-2 hours of them?

I understand their facility is nice, and you get a cd and all, but why not make the dyno day be about creating buzz for your business.

Here's a suggestion, make it $50 for 3 pulls, get as many cars in and out as possible, offer simple printouts, and you'll generate a good name and business for yourself.

Best of luck SLP, I hope it works out for you, but something tells me you won't have 3 people much less 12 sign up.

Harris (dyno tuned) my car with a printout and a dvd of my car for $200. Slp must have a lot of customers, because it seems like their not trying to make new ones. . I was waiting for this new of their dyno day for a while , but i have to say that i am truly disappointed. As you can see from my sig that i am an slp customer, but that price is ridiculous.

Please call TTP Performance and ask the owner (Matt) what he charges for 3 runs with A/F and Grandma's Culinary Treats during his Dyno Days.

You will then see that your pricing is WAYYYYYY out of line for a Dyno Day.

Hell- Cartek used to have FREE Dyno Days...

You (SLP) and the Hamburger name no longer command the F-Body market like you did in 1999-2002. You used to have the great SLP Customer Appreciation Day at E-Town, but then you turn around and have pricing for a dyno-day that is borderline obscene.
