Killeen dyno hogged all day

I tried to put my truck on a dyno today, but some wierd dude was hogging it all day it seemed and wouldnt get off, so hopefully better luck next week. All i know is that this person has a 4.6 engine and is maroon and grey coloured, now isnt that a huge hint to the guy who was hogging it

Faster's incredible lack of courtesy aside.. ... what shop do you use for your dyno runs? Cost?

All the shops here in Austin seem geared towards either euro or kiddie racers.. I wouldn't mind a bit heading up to Killeen if there's a shop that can take care of trucks..

there is a shop somewhere in Buda that has a dynojet......some guys from a truck shop down here use them because they let them dyno their diesels. Here's a few pics.

Guess that's why I didnt see you at the car show. I went for a little while, there was on 02 Harley there.

What Dyno are you using?

For the dyno shop, Sunshines shop in Killeen is back logged so we were going to use 'the car shop' on hood street/195, but some little kid, sorry Faster150 no kid sounds better, was there all day messing around but after 4 years he deserves to get his truck tuned the 2nd weekend in a row

As for the car show, we went along to it and saw the DSG harley but it was boring, so we headed home after a quick walk around...

Maxwell dodge on 620 and 183 has a dynojet. They run about 65$ for 3-4 pulls or 120ish per hour. The guy that runs the dyno is real nice. I did my datalog runs there and did I think 5 pulls that day for the 65$.

Maxwell is a good choice if you are up north. I know the guy that runs the dyno quite well (I was a service tech there from 2004-2005). Another alternative location if you are going south is American Racing Technology which is located in Buda.
