I had a chat with
Pro-Tek Automotive
273 Dundas St Preston 3072
(03) 9484 3117
They require around 30 cars for the price to be reasonable
30 cars - $30 each
20 cars - $40 each
10 cars - $50 each
As we cant get together 30 cars, I have asked if it is possible to join a dyno day of their's. They agreed with the idea.
Soon I will get a confirmation about the details of the next dyno day and post it here.

srys, this is gonna be
and sound newbie - but at a dyno, what exactly do they do?
I know at the end of the day u get like results, peak torque and KW atw etc.
But how exaactly do they do that? Rev the car to redline on a particular gear on the machine?
As u can tell... neva been to a dyno before, and am scared and excited at the same time

Hey Max, why did u picked Pro-Tek?
They didn't do a good job last time, they dyno all Tip FTO on 4th, its basically like dyno a manual on 5th or 6th (if it had one), which is the crusing gear.
Plus on the day they couldn't do the torque figure, so i wasn't a happy camper...

I found their name from the VIC forum, but didn’t read the pages,
I might start looking for another place now around the west of Melbourne, since I have moved to Hoppers last weekend.
$50 is not good I think considering it is a power run only, not sure about the torque curve, but no a/f ratiokhunjeng wrote:yeah and $50 is a fairly good price anyway!!
They do the full run with all the graphs for $75
