Ron's dyno is in collinsville. I just had my sti dynoed there about three weeks ago. Very nice facility and I got 5 pulls for 50 dollars. My best pull (completly stock, well until monday when the stage 2 goodies arrive) was 248.7 at the wheels. Ron did mention that his dyno reads low and he was surprised by the numbers I was putting down, considering i was stock. He said my car was pulling stage 1 numbers, if not better. I live in South County.

First of all - hit up the regional forums (maybe even move this).

Ron is kinda getting out of the business - like taking a break. He still uses the dyno for dyno days. Actually this weekend is a Cobb weekend for Subie's. Jorge is coming down from Chicago for it I believe. Anyways...

Evo IX here - we're around, but scarce. I like it like that! IL side.......

Your right evos are very scarce here on the IL side and its cool because we have a rare car around here.
