Well, you can rent some dyno time if you like.....usually about 125 bux an hour for just the dyno time....still need to use the HP Tuners to tune the car though. Typically just drive around on the street and get the regular driving dialed in, and do some WOT pulls and get all that done up.

I have HP Tuners, so I could tune your car with it. Anyone that has it can tune your car, just need to purchase credits to do so....they are 100 bux for the cobalt (50 bux each, you need 2). When you're just driving around normal you won't be able to tell the difference really.....with a dyno tune you can do the WOT pulls and see what power you're putting down, and if what changes you make give you power or not basically.

street tuning is a little bit better then dyno tuning. this is due to natural air flows instead of a fan just pumping air at ur car on the dyno. goto a dyno before and after the tune. get it tuned on the streets
