I'm not 100% sure, but I think that Drift Office has the only AWD dyno in the area. Let us know what you find out!

English Racing - nuff said. They are down in Camas (close to Vancouver, WA) but worth the trip. They occasionally have dyno days at the Drift Office in Auburn but I'm not sure they have another one planned.

Hey, are you a new member driving an RR in Monroe or is this a new alias? Do you live somewhere up Chain Lake Road? There are a few of us in Monroe. Welcome to the forums if you are new here.

EAT in Kirkland might have an AWD dyno (haven't made it over there yet).

I haven't heard of any technologies that they don't tune, so you may have some good luck with them. I've never been in to English Racing, but I do come from the S-Chassis world these days so it may not be that shocking.

So what mods do you have done to the car, and what are your goals?

RR == Rally Red == the color of your VIII. Did you pick it up recently or have you had it awhile? (I guess that is a dumb question since you said you are new to the import stuff. )

*edit - btw, don't be surprised if the mods move this to the local forums.

Dammit, I have a fairly new (less than 30k miles) stock battery I could have practically given you. Oh well.

Replacing the battery should not erase the tune but it might set some values to stock. I'm not familiar with tuning the ECU directly (I should jump in but I haven't) so I'm not the best person to ask.

I don't think I've seen you yet, but I have been in Montana the last week or so. I might have seen you once on 522 before I left though. I thought it was the other RR but never heard back from him.

*edit - I gotta run, but will catch ya later.

English Racing, JohnBradley and Billy are on the forum and Lucas makes appearances from time to time. In any case when it comes to Evos and tuning in WA you need to look no further.

Yeah we are on the forums, like Codgi said. We set up dyno days at Drift Office every 3 months usually and we are always open down here. 24 hours a day, 7 days a week...or something like that.

This should be moved to the NW section really.
