The dyno's resting. Your build doesn't have to.
Dyno sessions pause for the cold months. Through the winter we come to you and get your standalone set up, your sensors checked and your engine fired, so the car is ready for the rollers in spring.

What we do
Dyno tuning
We focus on the science of the tune, more appropriately: calibrating. We work on all aspects of it. Sensor setup, MAF calibration, idle, tip-in, warm-up, wide-open, mid-range and much more.
Our Mustang dyno holds load, so we can sit in any area of the table, map or fuel schedule and dial it in. We start with the basics and build up.
House calls
We come to your garage and get the project running: standalone configuration, every sensor verified, first start, and ignition timing synced. Once the car has some heat cycles on it, it's ready for the dyno.
Main area: Milton to Barrie to Kingston, south of Highway 7. Outside that? Message us anyway. Travel is quoted.
Factory ECU re-flash
Tuning on the stock computer for supported Nissan, Infiniti, Subaru, Toyota, Honda and Mazda platforms, using EcuTek, UpRev, Hondata, KTuner, Nistune, MazdaEdit and VersaTuner.

Two sets of straps, every time
If one lets go, the second is already holding.
We've watched the dyno fail videos. The common thread is a single pair of straps. We don't run that way. Every car on our rollers is held back twice, with fans on it and eyes on the gauges the whole pull.

Who's on the laptop
I'm Don. I've been tuning out of Trenton since the fall of 2016.
I'd rather explain what I'm doing than hide behind the screen. Whether this is your first build or your tenth, I'll meet you where you're at and talk at that level.
I know a lot, and I'm still learning. If you think I've got something wrong, say so. I want to hear why, because there's usually something in it for both of us.
