you can't tune it with your stock ecu...

but you could just do a couple pulls to see what the numbers are like, I guess

How much does it cost to have your car ran on a dyno? I don't see the point unless you do some major mods first. I understand your curiousity though I'd say for right now measure your HP on who's *** you can kick. [8D]

you have to ask around, some shops will do a "dyno day" where you get a couple pulls for $50 or so.

If you're going to do it just to get a basic idea of your starting point, I'd go for it as long as its not too expesive. But, after you've modded the car and are ready to see how much you've added, make sure you go back to the same dyno, preferabbly under the same conditions.
