Default Dyno in Tucson?

So I'm trying to find a place to get a baseline dyno in Tucson. I would prefer a DynoJet but wouldn't mind a Mustang Dyno if the company is a good shop. I've called around the places I could find in the phone book (only found 2 with Chasis Dynos) only one seemed to know what they are talking about. That place was Apex Motorsports (on Speedway and Swan) but this place is way more known for import cars and has a bad rep when it comes to Dyno's so I'm kind of hesitant.

Anyone?

They have a Mustang Dyno, I would prefer a Dynojet.

I went to Apex this morning and they were too busy to do it, even though I made an appointment. They said they would call back, and they still haven't.

were are you getting tuned at? I would want to use teh same dyno. a dyno is and should be used for tunning only. sure a dyno day here and there would be great. a couple wrong numbers here/there and you think you have 20 ore or less hp then you have. what are you doing that you want a baseline? I can save you some money. you buy me some in-out and I'll run you on 5 psi. you do your mods and get tuned and we'll go again.

I'm getting a mail order tune from MadTuner.com. I want to get a baseline because I'm putting in a CC503 and 1.6 Roller Rockers.

Is In-N-Out the place where all the F-Bodies go? Have you checked out the Test N' Tunes at SIR yet?

check out sonoranmusclecars.com, That where almost all fbodies in tucson go. As far as a dyno, there 3 choices. AI which is a mustang dyno, and its mostly a import shop, but they have a good rep. Apex has a dynojet but you had no luck there. and the last one is Mechanix Werx which is really good, give the a call 971-5258 ..

I moved the turbo up a good 3 inches, you can barly see it now. all that is left is to get some decent shocks, sfc's,and move teh charge pipe.
