You might want to call G force or HPE for details.

Neilish,

I went to HPE for ~60 bucks. I talked to Scooter on a Mon/Tuesday and I asked when a good time to get in and out was. He told me Thursday at X:00pm. I came in at that time, waited for about 45 minutes. They pulled my car up, stalled it out, then got it dynoed (no fan, about 2 minutes "cool" down) and got out. I wouldn't go back for a dyno. Nothing personal, just didn't fit my expectations.

You're right across the street from MTI anyway, I'd go over there. Jeff at MTI is the most professional guy I've talked to so far. Call him up tomorrow!

The best dyno I've ever done was on a Dynapack dyno at Summit Motorsports in Kemah. I don't have the phone number anymore, but the guy ran a small shop, owned a top fuel dragster, and was a pleasure doing business with - I did a 5 hour dynotune (I tuned myself) - that was mucho dinero.
