Hey Birmingham guys, what happened to AutoLabz?

FGJake · 04-15-2008, 06:57 PM

Anyone know where AutoLabz went? I heard they changed their name and moved to a new facility, but I can't find them. They had the only dyno that I know of in Birmingham.

Also, anyone know if there are any other dynos in, or even near, Birmingham?

What's the name? I've had my car for a year now, so I'd like to get a baseline.

FGJake · 04-15-2008, 07:21 PM

Also, BlackSi10, I have seen your car parked at the BEC before. Are you a business or engineering major?

BlackSi10 · 04-15-2008, 07:26 PM

cant remember the name....its right next to the Splish Splash car wash.....i am a Business major...Accounting

BlackSi10 · 04-15-2008, 07:27 PM

i think its called walker dyno tune or something

BoredVersion · 04-15-2008, 08:37 PM

Walker Dyno Tune hands down is the best in the area. AutoLabz is gone, the place is now Caveman Motorsports.

FGJake · 04-15-2008, 08:57 PM

^^Cool. I will have to check that place out. I think they're our local Hondata dealer too.

Cool. I'm an Electrical Engineering major myself. You going to help with some installs this weekend?

BlackSi10 · 04-16-2008, 12:13 AM

yeah probably man...i was supposed to have my s2000 retro here b4 then but it looks like i wont have it until around the next weekend

FGJake · 04-16-2008, 02:01 AM

Word. Well, I now have an SSR header, HFP suspension, and (hopefully by the weekend) an Injen CAI to install. I want to do the coolant bypass when installing the CAI, so I am going to have a full weekend of installs if it all works out.

BlackSi10 · 04-16-2008, 12:37 PM

well damn man thats a lot of work lol

FGJake · 04-16-2008, 01:02 PM

True. I really doubt it will all get done in one day. But if everyone can make it, it will be me, you, Nick, and my friend Heitzke from the ephatch forums. So maybe we will make quick work of it.

BlackSi10 · 04-16-2008, 04:55 PM

yea me and nick have done the hfp suspension b4 on my car...it shouldnt take any longer than 2 hours for us. I did my injen cai by myself and it took me about 3.5 hours blah it was a pita for me.

FGJake · 04-18-2008, 02:47 PM

So I went to Trussville today because I had to go to my parents house. I tried to find Walker Dyno Tune, but I didn't see it anywhere around Splish Splash car wash. I saw Trusville Tire, and Icon Powersports, but that was it. Are you guys sure that is where it is?

BlackSi10 · 04-18-2008, 02:52 PM

yeah its like right behind splish splah....just a couple buildings away from that one gas station.

I would have been there had I not had to go to Georgia. Though I did wrench with Heitzke on Friday on our friend's Audi. I think the jackstands left holes in the parking lot
