Default Tuner Shop in the East Bay

Hello, I would like to know of a shop around Castro Valley, CA that is capable of doing Dyno's and suspension tunning.

Any referrals will be greatly appreciated.

gruppe-s is awesome. talk to mike or preston and tell them that Johann sent you. the mustangdyno that they use is supposedly the most accurate real life situation dyno.

as far as suspension, do you need help adjusting the coils? if so, thats really easy, just takes time.

I've dynoed several places around the east bay -

Modacar (dynojet)
Livermore (925) 371-5888

Nextgen Autosports (dynojet)
Hayward (510) 538-6088

Gruppe-S (mustang)
Hayward (510) 783-5300

All of them are great. If you just want a baseline, you can go to any of them. If you want to do tuning, you're better off going to Gruppe-S.

Vishnu, (925) 924-9800, in Pleasanton has dual roller Dyno Dynamics, which is similar to a Mustang dyno (load dyno). Vis charges more than the others I mentioned.

I've also dynoed at Comptech, but they're way up in El Dorado Hills, and they have a Dyno Dynamics also.

Really good info, thank you for the follow up. Kings Motorsport is not going to be able to deliver the parts until next month.
For starters I want to dyno the car in stock form, dyno after the header install and finally dyno with the header/exhaust combo.

Would like to keep an eye on my fuel/air mixture as well. Gruppe-S sounds like winner.
