Dyno 'shops'

In other words, places where you can take your bolide to find out how much/little power it's making... I'm interested in visiting one in the near future to establish a baseline for planned work over the winter. I'm looking for such an establishment reasonably close to Stafford, which is where the Falco is currently berthed. Alternatively, if anyone knows a Dyno operator near Sheffield, that would also be suitable.

Initially I want to establish power outputs for:

1. Standard (but derestricted)
2. Standard but with Akrapovic cans
3. Standard but with Akras and new non-siamesed, larger bore headers.

I'm not particularly bothered about absolute numbers, just relative increases at this stage. I'm also not particularly bothered whether it's an (inflated reading) Dynojet dyno or a more truthful eddy-current type, mainly because I'm interested more in comparative numbers.

Any ideas?

Griff (Aprilia Performance) at Tamworth is the obvious answer, not too far from Stafford, certainly knows what he's doing.

If I mention him enough, I might get a half price service :-)

Don't forget, he must now be addressed as 'Mr. Jackson'

I used a place near Mallory Park in Earl Shilton, just the other side of Leicester so not far away...the printouts before and after were posted on here somewhere!!
