Question

Will it be alright for me to turn up to say 'hello' even if I don't want my car tested?

Hi, does anyone know what their dyno kit is? Their website doesn't mention it.

I've been to several places where they had the Dyno Dynamics system but they can never get the inductive pickup to work properly to display RPMs. My problem is that having an automatic without a torque converter clutch the road speed can't be mapped accurately to engine speed hence they can't tell me what the engine torque and RPM is...
