look in your phonebook or on the internet for performance shops in your area with a dyno.  get a baseline dyno figure to work with so when you buy parts, you can get another dyno done to see if they did anything.

by dyno u mean a dynometer right? like the ones the machines to get a emission sticker? i have a buddy that does emissions stickers... u think he'd be able to check that? or do i have to go to a place with a special kind of dyno?

A dyno meter is like a big rolling pin built into the floor, I beleive its like emissions but Im not too sure.  I dont think they can test HP at a dyno facility.  Where do you live, maybe someone on the board knows of a place around you.
