Buschur in Ohio.
Slow Boy in Indiana (PA).
CBRD in York (PA).
AMS in IL.
Wyotech in Blairsville (PA).

There is also one down in MD, but i forget where. mike was tuned there so he will know.

to my knowledge, with the exception of J, that is all the awd dynos close to us.

i wanna say there may be another one out near blairsville area in addition to wyotech, but don't quote me on that. the name agile performance comes to mind, but i don't know if that is accurate or not?

Well I have an appointment with Buschur for next Thursday to get some work done along with the tune/dyno. So that just happens to work out. Then again, that's a 4hr commitment for the drive alone. The rest you mentioned are also drives. A Pittsburgh Dyno would be a 1 - 1.5hr commitment for the drive.

As much as moderators infuriate me, I have to say that I thought Brian was being pretty fair with my post on the subject. I mean, I was pretty specific:

"Oh, and just to let you guys know, there is an Evo owner that is opening up a Mustang Dyno in Verona, PA (right near Monroeville). I'm going there early on Saturday to do a few pulls and get some datalogs. He's only charging $50 for three pulls which I didnt think was too steep. I guess Nate from TPG Tuning will be doing tuning there as well. Don't know if he has a website yet, but it is called J&S Auto if anyone is interested...nice to have a Mustang Dyno so close !"

Didn't know it was such a big deal, but I suppose it does make sense. Steelcity's post must have been a bit more persuasive than mine.

So do you guys meet up together in pittsburgh a lot? I have an 09 GTS 2.4L that i am getting ready to slap a turbo on & get the internals forged.

It would be sweet to meet up with a couple more evo freaks in the area

My CD link is below if you want to see what my ride looks like

Maybe in a couple years i'll be able to afford an evo

Actually, I didn't see this or I would have nuked this as well. It was tough to find but our official stance in the past regarding events is the following:

Events
• An event is considered “For-Profit” if money is collected to attend or participate
• For-Profit events must be authorized by the EvolutionM advertising staff and may require a vendor package. Contact one of the Staff for approval.
• For-Profit events that will not require a vendor package include motorsports events and shows that specifically include Lancers. These events may not be used as a tool to promote any other non vendor business.
• Local and National meets, BBQs, etc must not reference any non vendor business.
• Dynos days, tuning days, and other paid service event require a vendor account
• Exceptions – Members may discuss any event as long as they are not promoting it on behalf of themselves or another party.
