Default Dyno Prices

I have a 09 GT. Its stock right now and have about 550 miles on it. I was wondering what a dyno run costs? I know the price is going to vary but could someone give me an idea what im looking at. I would like to run it on the dyno in its stock form then after each mod, when I start doing them. BTW I live in the New Orleans area if that helps. Thanks for any help.

I paid $550 for the dyno time (flat rate) and chip. That was like 3-4 years ago though. Now it costs me $150/hour for dyno time.

Is there a one hour minimum? because 3 pulls will only take like 30 min.

Holy batman! I have talked a shop that, as far as I know are the only people who dyno, anyways I called them and they said if you bought a tuner from them it would be $650 for a test and tune and $600 if you bought a chip with them. Then if you have your own tuner, they charge $175 a hour and the guy said it usually takes 3-4 hours. I was like 3-4 for a test and tune?!?! And he said that they get pulled off the dyno to work on other cars so they go back and forth. That is nice to know when your charging me hourly.

I feel I would be getting bent over if I took it to this place, yes?
