RE: should i get my car Dyno tuned
a dynotune would do you well but like they are saying, don't expect too much gain right now. If you do more mods, you will need another tune or so. I pay $85 for 3 pulls, & the guy has the SCT software too
. I had J.D. from SCT give me my first dynotune, but I have to get another one on Friday.

Dont get your car Dyno tuned. That will only show you peak and it will only be good for 1/4 mile racing. If you know anyone w/ a Y band and a laptop that knows how to tune its alot better and accurate to do it on the street. You want your HP on a dyno to look like a really good curve, but it will look really choppy. But getting it tuned on the street w/ a Y band and someone who knows how it will be a heck of alot smoother and more power throughout the entire power band.

Ok, you should explain to me. I talked to a guy who has a 10 second cobra and he told me tune it w/ a Y band and a computer instead of a dyno for the HP curve that i stated earlier, explain to me how im wrong. I'll take everything into consideration because after my swap i need to get my car tuned and im not sure if im gonna take it to a dyno or that guy w/ the cobra. So please inform me.

RE: should i get my car Dyno tuned
I am getting my car Dyno "tuned" on fri. at the local shop here for $150. (actually I am tradeing him my stock rims/tires for him to install my u/d pullys and dyno tune it!!) I think it is a great deal, one tire has a slow leak and one is pretty much bald. can not wait to take it to the track on fri. night.
