Any Interest in a SoCal Dyno Day?

I've always wanted to dyno my car but never have because I've been waiting for a friend to install a Dynojet in his shop. It's been a few years so I'm not holding my breath on that anymore. If there are enough interested owners in this greater L.A. area perhaps we could do a dyno day sometime. I'm curious to see what some cars tested under the same conditions pull for numbers - certainly for me (headers, 94 octane Powerchip etc.) I'd like to find out how my car stacks up against some others, from OE to tuned.

I was thinking Evosport also as they have done comparable baseline runs. They might be working on my car in the future anyway so I want to see the shop.

Evosport has dyno'ed my car a number of times before. Usually they charge $125 per pull, but free if you spend over $1k there.

I know shop with a dyno jet in the inland empire would be way cheaper than evosport, nice guys well respected in other tuner comunities, let me know if we'd be interested and I'll call them. That have hosted for mustang, corvette, camaro, DSM days in the past.

Usually they do three pulls in teh range of what evo sport charges.

I'd be interested. I've had some dyno's done, but at the least, I would come out and bring my dyno charts and see how they stack up.
