I only know of one place that does Dyno tests near me, and I've heard that the other services they provide are overpriced, so I was wondering what price range is normal and what would be too high? Thanks.

The dyno I go to is:

$45 to hook up the car and 3 runs
$20 for heated wideband O2 sensor
$50/hour If you want to make more than 3 runs.


Speed kills, but it beats going slow!

How much does it cost to buy a dyno? $10,000, 100,000 ??? Not that anyone could set it up with out the proper shop and stuff but I'm just curious.

There's a lot of factors in deciding how much the Dynamometer costs. The 4wd/awd is where the extra added punch is, but for a regular 2wd dyno they start at around 24k. For a 4wd/awd one they start around 60k.

you could put a dyno in your backyard, garage, anywhere you can lay enough concrete to hold a car, and dig atleast 6 feet into the ground.


i am offically a troll... so take my information and advice with a grain of salt.
