HOW hard are you going to push your car ? Man a decent dyno man shouldn't damage the car. I remember when I was at school there was a dyno place down the road and after school I'd go and watch. Torana GtXu1 s and SLR5000s were pretty common...he blew up quite a few. His policy was "All care...No responsibility" Even at that young age I could tell he was revving the engines too hard and too long. Don't be afraid to tell the dyno man if he is working the engine too hard. you're paying him. Maximum horsepower can't be made on the street and how hard are you going to drive it on the track ? Good luck any way.
