Default Dynojet 224 at Westlake!

Hey everybody, just wanted to let you know there in a Dynojet in Franklin County (at Westlake) The shop name is Alan Mullins Complete Automotive. Tele: (540) 719-1251 I don't know if they do any tuning on cars, but from what I've read on here, most of you prefer to tune it yourselves.

FYI, I don't work there. I do know the guy that owns it, but I'm in no way affiliated with the business. Just wanted to let some of the locals know in case you guys need to dyno your car.

Thats awsome, if you talk to the guy that owns it anytime soon, find out if he does any sort of tuning!

I'll ask if I see him, but I really don't think he does. It's more of an automnotive service center. He is a part owner of an Outlaw car (Turbo'd Mustang) Thats the real reason I think the dyno may be there.

that's an expensive investment just to be able to tune your car whenever you want.
it is cool though to have a dyno in the area.....maybe i'll be able to get the guy that tunes my cars to come up here instead of driving to Charlotte

Thats kinda what I thought. I may be wrong on that. Plus, most dyno's only go up to 1200 HP. A Turbo'd Outlaw car makes way more than that, so who knows.

Figures, as soon as I sell all my rides, someone puts a dyno in 10 minutes away from the house. I guess I'll have to get another one!

two bucks says its the one that used to be in salem, but sold to a different owner.


i think i know where its at, and there is good reason to have it.



although for auto work, i would definitely make sure it has an eddy brake on it, they are so much nicer to use to be able to do driveability work with.

224 has no eddy, gotta step up to the 248 for that.
And I'm also guessing the dyno is Jerry Mullins' old one from salem.
