Brisbane Dyno Run

BMWRX · 03-28-2010, 08:25 PM

I'm eager to see what kind of power my car puts out. Does anyone know of a good place to put it on a dyno, and roughly how much?

BMW86 · 03-28-2010, 09:10 PM

The only places I know of are Mercury Motorsport, GT Auto Garage, 999 and Bayside Performance Services. DMS/Harding Performance has one too and they are very reputable but pretty expensive, $130 per run from memory. All of them mostly deal with ricer cars though besides DMS and BPS which do some work on euro cars too.

I got my exhaust fitted at Accelerate Automotive which is next door to 999 and they said they can arrange to use their dyno when needed. A basic power run is about $60 which gives you 2 runs. I'm pretty keen to do it in the next few weeks, probably after I get my new HPFP which looks like it needs replacing soon.

I dont think HP have their own, well they didnt when I used them last year. James will correct me if im wrong.

I've heard good things about ...

Elite Tuning over at Archerfield
Brisbane Tuning & Turbo Centre at Wolloongabba

Have you tried the Yellow Pages?

No. I thought I'd ask here first and find out the best places from those who have tried them already.

+1. DMS /Harding dont have one. They actually outsource. I cant remember which garage they use though.

Orlin · 03-29-2010, 04:00 AM

my dyno printout from HP says Newman Avenue Garage which is at Coorparoo I think.

andrew@southernBM · 03-29-2010, 04:31 AM

Accelerate or Mercury are on it.

BBK · 03-29-2010, 06:05 AM

I knew the owners of Mercury, great guys, but thought they had gone... Were they bought out?

samchuang33 · 03-29-2010, 05:42 PM

Do u know if they can do 4wd or just rear wheel drive?

BBK · 03-29-2010, 06:50 PM

Oh but I'll also add, that I would love to go if there is one organised!

Sorry, I assumed DMS/Harding had their own dyno. Thanks for clarifying that.

I'd be keen to get my car done too

James_HP · 04-06-2010, 02:01 AM

For any customer that wants to run their car after upgrade we use Newman Ave Garage at Coorparoo. Paul is the owner and very knowledgeable with his dyno. 38477166. Paul is the one to speak to.

We have been using them for years and are great guys.

BMW86 · 09-05-2010, 10:14 PM

Anyone else had their car dyno'd in Brisbane and how much they charge for a power run? I'd be keen to know how much power my cars putting down before it gets any hotter.

BBK · 09-07-2010, 10:52 PM

So what's happening guys? Would love to do this ASAP :-D

TimMc · 09-07-2010, 11:17 PM

I'm keen for that place in Coorparoo - as it's close to home...
