that would be awesome. you could prob make a pretty penny for charity if you got a shop to lend their dyno for free.

It's tough as they're heavy as hell, insurance and expensive to move.

I know crawford brought one out to RIM years ago... theirs is easier to move than a mustang. Dynojet's are easier to move.

If I was able to pull it off I would have to find a shop that was willing to move it... very unlikely. LOL. But hell, I'll put it on my to do for next year.
