TrueStreet Motorsports is having an all day dyno day and open house to celebrate their new location.

This is easily one of the better shops in town (in my opinion) with excellent customer service.

It's at 901 McDonald St which is just one block over from their old location. They have moved to a new building which about twice the size of where they were at before.

9am-6pm. Dyno pulls for $40 bucks and free BBQ, hot dogs, burgers, chips and drinks all day. :)

Wear your TrueStreet tshirts and $10 bucks off your dyno pulls. :)

Hell yes! I'm in for sure! Give me a good base line to run the car...

I'm contemplating swapping my stock ABs back on to do a true stock run, then run with the GT500s (to test Latemodel's claim of 8 rwhp over stock). 3rd run would be for shits and giggles....unless I go NAAAAAAAAAAAWWWZZZZZZ! :lol:

Of course. It's posted on all types of makes/model boards. It's not a strictly Mustang shop. They work on almost everything.

Thanks Steve for the kind words, we work very hard to be a step a head in
Everything we do. Like Steve posted we at True Street are very excited to have everyone come out and see the new place. We are finishing up our construction right now but I will post some pictures very soon....

I was just out at Truestreet and Clint gave me a preview of the new location. It's still under construction, but very close to being finished. The new shop is going to be amazing. It's SO much bigger than their current place it's really going to help them out getting a lot more work done. :)

Clint helped me out on a Sunday, his kids birthday no less, when I was in dire need of a new SCT handheld. Good guy. I haven't had any work done by the shop but if they're anything like him, good people.

Will be there for this. Going to pulley down and hope for big #'s in the cooler air.

Thats the type of service im talking about. They go that extra distance to help everyone not just the people who spend a fuck load of money in their place like certain other shops do. They are rea car guys too. They know what its like to get stuck, break or need something in a crunch cuz its happened to them too. Lol.

Even if you are loyal to another shop, its still worth it to give these guys a look. You wont regret it!

will for sure be there now to get a baseline number

Luke
09-24-2012, 02:11 PM
Any other work being done that day, I want to get a baseline but I've also got a driveshaft, tuner and possibly an x-pipe to add and want to see those numbers as well. That's a good trip each way for me, likely wouldn't be able to make it back that way for a while.

DirtyD
09-24-2012, 02:15 PM
I don't see any reason they couldn't do it in the shop. Those are all relatively simple, quick mods.

I would contact Clint to see what you can get worked out.

Luke
09-24-2012, 02:17 PM
Ok thanks, I might still throw it all on myself before then but I'll give him a ring.

Highly doubtful as dyno days tend to attract close to 50+ people looking for dyno pulls within the day. Staff is usually pretty busy working grill and food, helping strap down cars for pulls, assisting guests with any questions.

I could be wrong, but this has been my experience with dyno days.

Grandpa
09-24-2012, 02:19 PM
Typically, they don't do full tunes on a dyno day because they are so busy getting cars on and off the dyno. But maybe if there was a slow point of the day they could get it tuned for ya. It never hurts to ask and the guys at TS always go out of their way to help. :)

I assumed that he was just going to be using canned tunes or custom tunes he already has, not really looking to has TSM tune the car...

Luke
09-24-2012, 03:02 PM
The busy schedule is why I asked. As for tunes, they'll be canned tunes so I won't be needing the dyno tune done just yet, I'll save that for the turbos when I get them!!

Toby
09-24-2012, 03:06 PM
Give us a call tomorrow. I'm sure we can work something out to get you taken care of!

Luke
09-24-2012, 03:06 PM
If I can pull it all off in time I'll just get a baseline from a shop around the corner from my house and go to my buddy's to use his lift and get everything installed. I'd rather use the samy dyno in the same elements but we'll see how it goes. I'll only have 2-3 days home before the 6th.

Correct.

Unfortunately we won't be able to do this on the same day. Our resources are stretched thin during Dyno Day's due to the added effort it takes to get cars on and off the dyno as efficiently as possible.

If you make it to Dyno Day, come see me in the office and perhaps I'll still be able to work something out if all else fails!

Yellow is available parking for event day only.
No parking

Visit me in the front office (southern most point of the shop) to get your invoice in line for the Dyno!

The squared off area behind the shop (east side) will be the focus for parking as to create a more "car show" feel for folks to display their rides.
