They charged me $50 cash for 3 runs with the exhaust mounted air/fuel monitor. I called them last month and they told me $75 for 3 runs. I thought they were very layed back and causal. I should be there for a dyno tune sometime, probably October. Wanna split some dyno time? $100/hr I believe. It was good seeing another Contour owner last week. Sold 1998 Contour LX 13.868 sec 1/4 mile time. Two years of rental cars, seriously. Holding out for 07 Cobra Mustang.

I really didn't think the crushed bent exhaust made a diffrence so I didn't mention. I have also bumped the timing to 14* and removed the smog pump. Thats pretty much it. I also iced the intake on the first run. So you have any idea why I am running rich? 98CSVT specII yada yada yada 95 Mustang GT M&M road&track box HP stage one 60-mm

They were very nice people down to the tripod legged dog. The old man showed me around the whole place and there various race cars. He said the a Mustang held the HP record there right now with 700 hp at the wheels. I plan on going back with the tour but am undecided when. I would like to get the a/f adjusted on it also. I think it would be more beneficial if you payed for an hour for just your car because you think about it by the time they take your car off and put mine on and hook everything up its going to eat some time up.
