Being in Mumbai I was looking for a place to do Dyno tuning of my car, to calibrate it just right. Is there any place to do this? Does anyone have a dyno?

I dont know who ARAI and VRDE are. And why wont they let anyone use it. They can make some serious money out of it by tuning ppls cars. They can just need to do a single run and tune for a gran or so.

ARAI and VRDE do not tune cars. They are authorised by the Govt to homologate and test cars. Autocar India and OD test their cars at ARAI and VRDE. I dont think theres any place in Mumbai where u can tune and dyno test ur car. BTW what car u wanna tune and dyno test??

After doing anything to my Ikons engine i need to tune it up to get the best chip mappping to squeeze all possible power out, otherwise i will do the heads and run a new exhaust system, and not even benefit. I was actually thinking of getting one from back home and setting it up myself, but the cost to buy one second hand is just a bit overwhelming.

check with any good engineering college in your area.They normally will have a dyno which they allow "outsiders" to use for a price.
