South Gate Dyno
I know where you're coming from, but we're not saying we're DEFINITELY gonna go to these guys. We're gonna check them out and go from there. If Ryan himself says that these guys are pretty good, they must be O.K.
Besides, we can't totaly dis-count South Gate Dyno. All good shops out there started the same way. They may be good, they may not.........there's only one way to find out.

Hey, guys, how's it going? I'm not as sure as you guys might be but RET closed down last year. If you go by there now, it's some jacked up shop with Honda's laying around all the time. If you do down the alley close to hitting Paramount there is a new shop that's getting built or just got built. I know on their banner they advertise a dyno. I go by there most of the time, I can check it out for you guys tomorrow.

Here's an update.
I stopped by South Gate Dyno today and my impression wasn't all too bad. Joe (the owner) seems like a very cool guy and he knows what he is talking about. He showed me around his shop and pulled a few dyno sheets of current vehicles he's tuned. Overall, I'd say SG Dyno is worth a shot.
As far as pricing goes;
3 pulls for $75- to get your current HP.
Tuning starts at $125 for the initial computer access (one time charge), $75 an hour
In regards to groups, he's willing to do $50 per car with a minimum of 5 cars for the 3 pulls.

I drove by a few days ago and it's turned into a regular mechanic shop. No ponies anywhere in sight. But there is another shop opening up soon right down the street from that. It's closer to the Paramount Blvd. side.
I'm not sure on the differences between each dyno, but his is on the floor.
I'm in for the dyno pulls also, there's only 1 way to become familiar with SG Dyno.
Cool guys, that's the siprit.
Hopefully SG Dyno turns out to be exactly what we need.
