right now there is curry's, Extreme, altered atmosphere, and i didn't know they had one but someone mentioned turboxs.. an awd dyno in hte 757 would be beneficial.. the 757 is a HUGE area and i'm sure it owuld get plenty of business, plus people south of you and in the richmond areas and such would have somewhere other than Marlyand and DC area to go

Good tuning capabilities will get a reputation that will build a customer base too. Otherwise, you will waste money on something nobody wants to use.

People will also come from outside of hampton roads to use an AWD dyno. Isn't the closest one right now in Maryland?

thats what i was about to say. it cost about $30k more for the extra equipment for an AWD dyno, i think it'd be worth it in the long run.

Any dsm people that may be interested I have a vce that you can borrow.
this will make your car dyno capable if you disengage the rear wheels. I.e. take the center diff off or whatever.

pm me for details

I gotta agree. I like this guy, he's pretty smart for a mustang driver.

Definitely a great idea. It sucks to have to drive 3.5 hours to get a dyno tune. And it would definitely bring in customers from other areas like richmond and nc.

Turbo xs only tunes for their products if I understand correctly. I know for a fact he doesn't do baseline runs, and it is closed to the public. Don't know anything about curry's. There definitely is not a 6mo. wait for altered atmosphere. I got an appointment for the same week I called (maybe I got lucky). I wasn't impressed with their facility, but maybe I had too high expectations.
