What Places in the Los Angeles Area Do Dyno's?

I'm wondering if there is any place in the West LA, Beverly Hills, Santa Monica area that does dyno's or any place within 10 to 15 miles of these areas that do?

A good source would be to go the dynojet.com and find one close to your home. In West LA. you should try DC Performance. They specialize in Modified Vipers and Vettes.

Try Arling at Lucent Motors. They're in La Cienega. Post some before and after dyno sheets when you're done.

Thanks! I called DC Performance today and I'm going there next week to get a dyno. They said they have dyno'd few C55 before was yours one of them?

I thought Lucent is on Sepulveda just north of olympic in west LA and they don't do dyno's. James are you talking about a different one and have you been to them before?

No but a friend of mine with a white C55 had it dyno'd there. Make sure you watch the display monitor when your car is on the dyno. Brandon was handed a Viper's dyno sheet by mistake with 479rwhp which was obviously too high for a C55.

James, Lucent doesn't have a dyno. I'm sure Arling knows someone that could have it done but he doesn't have a dyno on site...
