Dyno Costs

Just out of curiosity, how much does dyno testing (3 pulls) nornally run?

I asked a local shop and they said its 139 for baseline runs and if I want to do AFR, it's an extra 35. It just seems like $175 for 3 runs back to back is alot. I assumed 75-100. But maybe I am way off base...

Seems typical to me. My local shop charges between $125 and $150 for dyno runs.

They want to deter people wasting dyno time, honestly. A dyno is for tuning, not checking your output

I've never spent more than $50 during a club dyno day.

Look for a club dyno day in your local area.

Just look around/wait for a promotional "dyno day". Depending on where you live there's probably a shop that will host one every 2-3 months.

I'm actually attending one this coming Saturday. $40 for 2 runs (no tuning allowed, just power checking). I'm curious to see how much my APR tune added to my output.

I found a shop that does $99 that includes hp/torque/AFR on a dyno jet Dyno. I will probably go that route
