    Dyno Shop Disclaimer

    Was wondering what kind of disclaimers or waivers are being used by dyno shop operators?
    Anybody care to share?

    Apparently none, so you're good to go!

    This may be better answered by an attorney that has experience in representing auto repair shops.

    If you search the net for attorneys in your state, many of them have free initial phone consultation so you may be able to call several of them and pick there brain and come up with an answer without paying for anything.

    After all, attorney or not it's just their opinion and the only way to find out how a legal issue will play out is for it to be tested in court.

    honesty the best thing I can recommend is visit a few different tuners sites. I bunch have there disclaimers up, for you to sign online, before you ever step foot in the shop. Read some that are out there, and pick and choose what fits your needs, and customers expectations

    I had a attorney make me one up and he said all it does is hopefully just scare them and might help in some situations help for shop liability but if you are proven to be neglect... It's always best to cover your butt best you can.

    Exactly, the disclaimer only protects you from customers who refuse to accept responsibility for their own vehicles. Like having stock valve springs, with a cam, and telling you they want rev limiter at 7000 rpms, and telling you it has good springs. But the internet forum said a guy did it once, and his motor survived.
