Where do you go for Dyno Tuning?

Post by GWolpertV70 »

I am looking for a Volvo specialist near me who does dyno tuning. I am in central Pennsylvania, but I'd be willing to drive pretty far if I could find a place that would be able to help.
The car is a 1998 V70 Base with a 5-speed that I am building to STH spec for SCCA.
It has a larger MAF sensor, CAI, ported and polished TB, ported and polished intake manifold and headers, high flow cat and gutted exhaust. The last thing I am allowed to do in ST class, power-wise, is a tune, which it could really use.

I don't think any dyno's do Volvo tuning. Almost ALL Volvo tuners only do turbo cars.

Thanks

I figured it would be a long-shot, but the class allows a stand-alone engine management. I'm wondering if that might open my options a bit, or if someone on here is familiar with installing and using one. I'll give Aaron a try.
