Default dyno near san jose?

i live in san jose and im trying to get my car dynoed cuz the last guy that "tuned" it didnt do so good. Anyways i ended up getting a wideband o2 sensor and gauge and tuned it my damned self, the carb and timing was WAY off. Timing was at 22* total (instead of 30*) and the jets were dangerously lean on the primaries, and now i want to dyno my car. Not only to see how much power she puts down, but to see what my shift points should be. The original "tuner" guy stopped it at 5600rpm like a dumbass

LOL i tried calling tps motorsports and all i got was "uh let me call you back" and they hung up without getting my info or phone number so then i tried synergy because of the recommendations here and they said they wont let me put the car on the dyno because they only use it for their own tuning purposes (understandable i guess) and they told me to try a shop in hayward. I guess its hard to find someone who wants to dyno my car LOL ill keep you updated on the results.

FYI id take it to goodies but thats where i originally had mine "tuned" but a bigger reason why i dont want to take it there is cuz they use a dynapack and i want to use a dynojet to compare it to others without thinking in the back of my mind that they read HP much differently if you get what im sayin!

Go to Synergy. I went down there to buy the owner's (Rick) black TA, but a few factors decided to change my decision and stick with the v6. he's a great guy with a good dyno. Go there

called Newtech, they seem nice. MAYBE ill take my car there tomorrow. If anybody can suggest anywhere closer i would appreciate it, even if its one of the lil import shops. Although i remember going to an import shop to inquire about how much to dyno my audi, i just said "im going to need to dyno my car and just wondering how much you guys charge" and the reply from the asian dude was "we dont dyno domestics" like WTF??? i didnt even go in my galaxie i went in my audi but he hadnt seen it, but still not cool!

There is a difference between recomending a shop you have had good success with and bagging on the shop that competes with the one you go to. Have you ever been to newtech personally to form your own opinion? Im not trying to start anything, but if you or any of your friends have a problem PM me or call me up, I will be more than happy to clear anything up that you may think about us. We are usually the last shop any normal customer with reasonable expectations based on budget/goals has to go to, we get it done plain and simple.

FYI I still have the fastest 6 speed C6 Z06 and 6 speed SS camaro around here last time I checked. If that doesnt speak volumes of our abilities I dont know what does.
