Dyno close to Albany, NY?

Anyone know where I can get dyno'ed? I'm in Albany, NY. Anything within reasonable distance? I could go to NYC but then I'd have to fight traffic and such and I'd rather not. Thanks.

By the way...I posted this in the regional forum but got no hits...so I'm posting here. Keep your flames to yourself.

Thanks NmexMAX...another question(s) for you. Do I need to do anything to my car to get the most accurate reading? I plan on getting rid of both of my O2 sensor CEL's (due to cut wiring and re-wiring incorrectly when removing them from my factory Y - long story), and having a VAFC-II installed.

Do I setup my VAFC-II after the dyno or before (and then re-configure it better after my readings)? Will they give me a print out so I can post it on here for further comments/suggestions?

Stock O2's wont have any affect during AFR tuning @ WOT, so i wouldn't worry about those so much.

General consensus is to set up the VAFC, but do not change anything (corr%), so essentially, it will be the same as before you installed it (0 correction)

Do 1 run w 0 correction. And use those baseline readings for each run thereafter shooting for a flat curve anywhere from 13.0 - 13.5.

Ask them for the runfiles, and take a USB drive with you so you can take them when you leave. If you don't have a thumbdrive, ask them to email them to you.

So after the first run...that's when I start correcting stuff on the VAFC-II? How many runs do they offer and how much does it usually cost for all the runs?

Also, thanks for the thumb drive tip. I thought they printed them out, but that's actually better as I'm a computer person and would rather have the files on my PC than on paper.

Depends on the shop. Typically, it's 4 runs/hour, so they charge by the hour. Here's my local shops schedule. You may want to call yours and see what their rate is.
