We are expanding :)
 

As of the 2nd week of March 2006, LSE Performance will be finished with our expansion.
We are adding an additional 1800 square feet to our facility. LSE Performance will be located at Suite 220 and Suite 213. Our current facility (213) will house all of our install and chassis fabrication. Our machining will all be done in this facility. The front office will be reserved for vehicle pick-up and accounting. This suite will be getting a 2nd lift mid season.

The new suite will house our Engine building room, porting and polishing, retail store front, customer lounge, 2 offices, and our 600 square feet dyno facility.
The engine room is a totally enclosed and temperature controlled 120 square foot room. This is where all of our short and longblocks will be made. Our porting and polishing room will be seperate from the rest of our facility. Plans are to add a flow-bench mid season.
The dyno room will feature this: http://www.dyno.com.au/usa/products/..._450Lowboy.htm

Our Chassis Dynameter is being custom made for our company. Ours will have upgraded retarder units on both axles. This will give us the capibility to graph 2400whp in a 2wd configuration, loading 1200whp. In AWD mode, our dynameter will load 2400AWHP and graph 4800AWHP. Good luck pinning this dyno people :). The dyno was chosen after many months of extensive research. We believe it to be the best choice for our needs.
The room will feature a soundproof wall and full exhaust evacuation. Customers can to view dyno results via a TV located inside the customer lounge. This way, there is no fight for "monitor viewing space" on dyno days. Customers who own the vehicle, can watch the vehicle dyno inside the room if they wish.

These additions will allow us to further our research and development programs. It will also allow us to better serve our growing customer base.

Ground breaking on the new facility is scheduled for February 20th. The dyno is scheduled for arrival and install sometime during the 2nd week of March.

We would like to take the time to thank DSMSTYLE and the customers who support us with their business. Without your support, this wouldn't be possible. Thank you all again, this next season will be awesome!

Please keep all questions and comments to this thread.
A few common ones that I will answer.
Dyno rates are expected to be as follows:
$150/hr with us tuning.
$120/hr with you tuning.
$75 3 pulls.
$1000 all day on the dyno. (when we open, until we go home. 8-12 hours usually.) That is for personal use, or for us tuning.
Dyno days? Please contact us for availability and pricing schedule.
Shops? Please contact us for our shop pricing schedule.


*All dyno use will feature wideband air/fuel monitoring with a printout of ratios and HP/Torque values after the conclusion of the session.
The new shop layouts can be seen here.

This will bring our company to the next level. Now we can provide rock solid numbers to back up our products and our systems we size and assemble. Also we can spread 213 out just a little more to provide a more efficient work space.

Pretty cool guys. You going to be hiring anymore grunts to go along with this added space?

Re: We are expanding :)
 

If so Im Available!!

Re: We are expanding :)
 

Gratz guys! I know you are pretty cramped in the space you have now. This should make it much easier for you. Things must be going well!

Re: We are expanding :)
 

Ryan will be coming on full time this spring (if he so chooses). Then we will have to see where we are workload wise. An additional employee or a few employees is a possibility, we'll just have to see how it goes.

Re: We are expanding :)
 

Wow that will be awesome! Congradulations, thats going to be quite a shop guys! I will probably bring up the M just to see how low it will dyno ;)

Re: We are expanding :)
 

Awesome guys!!! I am going to need my car tuned this summer possibly. I was planning on going to Elite, but if you guys have an AWD dyno then that may be a better deal for me!

Re: We are expanding :)
 

I'm coming as well. :)

Re: We are expanding :)
 

I'm pretty sure the colt will fight it for the honors ;)

Re: We are expanding :)
 

I want in on this low HP numbers game!

Re: We are expanding :)
 

I think my talon in it's current state with it's addiction to 43 counts of knock (even in neutral) could be in that low hp race as well.

Re: We are expanding :)
 

Do NOT make me put the Grand Prix on there.

Re: We are expanding :)
 

Congrats guys, that's awesome news!!! :D

Re: We are expanding :)
 

congrats, i was in there earlier, josh & John were telling me about it, so i drove by 220 and its quite a nice size space. i can't wait. I'm in too for the low hp game. hopefully see you guys in 2 weeks.

Re: We are expanding :)
 

Wow, when this is all said and done, you guys will have a very popular shop

Re: We are expanding :)
 

We could host a low hp dyno day, who ever has the lowest hp # could win a prize. I would like to run a hp shoot out. To see who has the most hp at the wheels, or somthing like that. Thanks for the kind words.

Re: We are expanding :)
 

I think I could win this one with the CRX. Even though it is measuring compression on the oil pressure guage. And can't get more than 50mph going downhill with a 90mph tailwind.

Congrats on the growth guys. I have to come down there some time soon to see the place and maybe buy a few pieces for my talon.

Re: We are expanding :)
 

Looks damn good, congrats.

Re: We are expanding :)
 

Nice! Congrats on the new shop.

Just out of curiousity, how much does a dyno like the one you plan to get go for?
