Dyno with Load Cell For Steady State Tuning Locally?
 
Anyone know if any of the dynos in town have proper load cells for tuning steady state?

I need to tune my car in the next month or so, but just ripping up to redline 12 times and making guesses is not my idea of tuning. I can datalog myself and do that on the highway. :p:D

Maybe Rocket Rally or one of the Mustang dynos in town?

Only local Steady State Dyno is R.G. in Coquitlam (Mustang Dyno)
Kinetic has a Dyno Dynamics, but it isn't working right now.

^^ they have steady load and variable load its good for finding those cells that are hard to hit.

Berz out.

Thanks guys- looks like BlitzKreig Autowerks on Hastings has a dynapack, and good pricing.

The used to famr their stuff out to Rocket Rally but it appears they got their own setup about a year ago.

Thoughts?

The Kinetic dyno is working just fine. Its just not readily available to people they do not know.

Wanted to go there but the tuner is gone until the 17th. :(

I want to take the car to a big volvo show the weekend before he gets back, so that ain't happening.

I considered rocket rally but it's expensive and a long drive and a long tow if anything goes sideways, so I'm going to racing $$$$$ wednesday.

That will be cool anyways- used to wax philospohic about engine tuning with Lowell a bit here and there way back when he was at LR, so hopefully he'll be around as I value his opinion a lot when it comes to tune.

400whp or bust!

It was sold to some backyard mechanic kids who have no idea how to use it. As far as I know it was being farmed out to any shop that wanted to use it and could teach them how to operate the dyno.

HAHAHA that's fucking classic!

That dyno is in need of a service in a bad way. I worked at kinetic for years running that dyno and after I left I do not think it was used much and was neglected. The rollers need to be re narled they have worn out and to keep it from spinning with anymore than 500whp is a challenge.

I went in there with a few friends cars to run it and it was awefull, just a mess of broken wires and damage equipment, such a shame.

I would think 10K in service and a software update will get it back into the realm of usable.
