What does it cost to take your vehicle to a dyno?
Depends on the dyno and what you want, and how long you're there. Generally it can be like $65 for 3 pulls not including tuning - meaning buddy running the dyno says it's too lean lets change the jets and he does it. Or something to that effect. I didn't have any tuning done on mine, I just made like 4 pulls and called it good. [No idea on what it cost because the rest of the day we had the race car on there.] Oh another thing to check out is if they drive the vehicle or if they let you do it. The first time I put Brutus on there, I drove it. Buddy stood there with me and told me what to do. First and last time I'd ever had the speedo needle burried. :shocked [Second time I went to another place and they drove it, the dumb shit didn't even know how to work my shifter and I was drawed up in a knot the entire time. I started once to back out when he said he was gonna drive it, but I had already paid for it.]

How the hell do you people do that?
Big block.
And how the hell do you POWER BRAKE it? Push the brake and the skinny pedal at the same time or what?
You have to pump the brake pedal some to build it up, then stand on it and romp down on the throttle and
barely let off the brake some. I actually didn't do that burnout, my brother was driving it. I have NO brakes due to vacuum and no matter how much I stood on the brakes, I couldn't get them to hold enough. Oh and a little water helps.
I've still got rubber on BOTH quarter panels and in the rear bumper from that little stunt. I figure I'm going at it with a grinder soon, I'll get the rubber off then.
