Where is a good place to get dyno runs done in melbourne, and at a decent price? I'm about to upgrade my exhaust and would like to do a before and after run. I use to get runs done for $50 at a place in lilydale (they sponsored the lexus forum which i was a member of) but now that I'm in the ford camp the offer no longer applies :(

My experience was get an opinion on the forums and then bargain!
I went as mentioned to G&D in Cranbournme and mentioned the forums and $40 dollars later had a dyno run the next day! Am dissapointed with G&D for poor customer service but their Dyno result was pretty spot on (as ive had numerous since and they were in the ballpark). Anymore than $40 and your being ripped off!!!!

A Dyno day is the cheapest way of getting your car on a dyno...

It's all good....reminded them I have been a repeat customer and negotiated on a reasonable deal ($60).
I think most places are charging $100+ for power runs.  : .
