In-house engine dyno facility.

This allows us to test and adjust your engine settings in a controlled environment where all changes can be measured.

The production of a dyno graph shows the torque and power the engine produces within a RPM range.

Any problems found are easier to correct here on the dyno stand than under the hood. It is also cheaper to test and tune an engine on the dyno than at the track.
