Hey I was just wondering if anyone knows of any shops in the area that specialize in 3sgte's, or toyotas, that have a dyno. I've been wanting to take my car to get it dynotuned, and figure out why its running the way it does. Sometimes it runs great, and othertimes it just really bogs down.

can you relate anything as to why it might bog down?

to me it sounds like the stock ecu pulling timing

no i cant relate anything to why it will run like crap sometimes. i am thinking air/fuel ratio problem possibly. not quite sure.

There are no 3s-gte specialists as far as I know. Closest you'll get is Burien Toyota, but of course they don't have a dyno. If you just want to get readings, any old dyno shop should be able to do that.

no i am just looking for a shop that has a dyno that would be willing to tune it as needed, and figure out why my car is running the way it is.

The thing I'm thinking, is this motor isn't that tunable with out piggy backs, so I'm not really sure what you'll acomplish on a dyno. And remember we're all pretty restricted to all wheel dyno's and the only one in the state, is a shop that specializes in Euro cars, so they won't work on your motor, but they can tune EMS and piggy back systems.

There are many AWD dynos in the state. Axiom in Tacoma has one that bolts up to the hubs and will do pulls, and probably testing if you want to throw down enough money.
