Nelson Racing is the only place I know that Dyno's Engines while their out of the car, anyone else know of anything in the los angeles area? I'd like to get some engines tuned while they are out...

As far as I know there should be a few shops that will do it the problem is they usually only dyno a motor only when its carburated since minimal electronics are reqd. I have never seen a shop that will dyno a fuel injected motor unless it was on a standalone they had a config for.

Well see a corvette or many corvettes in the 90's used the tune port injection. Accell made a standalone for it which became very popular very fast. That was one of the first mass produced EMS systems and many older shops may still have them. It is also possible the owner of the shop was willing to take the owners ems unit and set his dyno up for it. The accel unit didnt need any other inputs from the vehicle like the factory units do.

No idea where you can take a class. I suppose you really dont have to take one if you have 60k plus to buy a new mustang dyno or 90k for a dynapack.

When you buy one the company installs it for you and trains 2-3 people for you, they say its free, bur its what your paying for.

I just play with the one on campus.

You can contact the vendors and manufacturers, they offer trainning seminars.
