Cost of dyno testing?

How much are your guys paying to put your cars on a dyno? I don't want to do a tune. I just want to get the HP and Torque graphs.

I'm looking for a local shop to take my car and want to know what to expect before I call.

Thanks

Id say no more than $80 tops for 3 pulls with A/F.

Dyno time is expensive around my town.. averaging $100 for 3 pulls. Found one place that does it for $75.. Sometimes they lower to $50 on certain days. I would call around and go with the lowest bidder. Ask them what type of Dyno (manufacturer) they have.. I prefer DynoJet for less heart-breaking numbers

I went with a Dyno Dynamics here in Houston, runs are 85 (before tax), which is fair, three pulls.

Prices are usually around the same like 3 pulls for 75-100ish.

Where I go (Altered Atmosphere) they are $80. Sometimes these places have Open House or something similar and might do it for half price. My first dyno with Altered was only $40 since it was an Open House for them. Just something to keep an eye out for.

it also depends on what kind of drive your car is RWD, FWD, AWD. i believe AWD is the priciest $100+
