Default List of shops, dynos, fab etc.

Not sure if we have a thread like this already, but in case we don't, I figured a performance resource would be helpful for everybody. Feel free to add your experiences and favorites.

Mods, please edit this to add locations as you see fit!

Local stuff...

DYNOS

CT

JK Motorsports

Fairfield, CT

http://www.jkmotorsports.net/index.html

Owner Jerry is an automotive performance genius. He races a 900-hp naturally aspirated Chevy I6 and sells VP race gas at the pump. AWD dyno.

ICS Performance

Stamford, CT

http://www.icsperformance.com/main.htm

Brian is a cool guy and I believe Al of DynoFlash now tunes there. AWD dyno.

European Performance Labs

Stratford, CT

http://www.eplabs.net/

Tony is a cool guy and he has a nice shop in a good location. They tune anything. AWD dyno.

Pruven Performance

Milford, CT

http://www.pruvenperformance.com/

These guys didn't seem very friendly unless you show up with a DSM. AWD dyno.

XX Tuning

East Hartford, CT

http://www.xxtuning.com/

Never been to this shop but they are Subaru experts and have some serious Supras. AWD dyno.

The Shop

Norwalk, CT

http://www.theshopct.com/

Owner Jimmy is a nice guy and I think Jr, an awesome AEM tuner, works there now. Lots of STi and EVO tuning. AWD dyno.

Total Induction Tuning Solutions

South Windsor, CT

http://www.totalinduction.com/home

Saw these guys on another forum; look to be pretty capable considering some of the cars they've built. 2wd dyno.

DE

Car Version 2

Wilmington, DE

http://carv2.com/site/index.cfm

They are good and really impress me how smooth Bullitproof 600+whp dyno.

First State Motorsports

Claymont, DE

www.fsmoto.com

Site doesn't work for some reason, but Josh builds some gnarly NA-T Supras and SC300s and does a lot of custome turbo fab. 302-798-7000

NJ

IveyTune

Linden, NJ

http://iveytune.com/

(Tune pretty much all EMS and also a licensed VPro Tuner) I also think they have the sickest deal for VPRO + Install. They are a new sponsor in MY350Z but been around the block, mainly AWD cars

MRC Motorsports

Spotswood, NJ

http://www.racemrc.com/

State of the art Dyno Dynamics load based dyno, and have done many of the really fast 350Z's in the north East.

E-Shift Performance

Cliffwood Beach, NJ

http://www.eshiftpro.com/

From mild to wild, bolt ons to custom fabrication, E-Shift Performance brings the highest quality of service. Heavily known in the Supra scene. They have a Dynojet 248x dyno.

Broadway Peformance

Passaic, NJ

http://www.broadway-performance.com/

Lexus/Supra Specialist. AMG, BMW, Mopar, Corvette, Lambo, Ferrari, EVO, STi Owner John Nouri has had 3 SC300 Turbo 6spds himself. AEM/VPC/AFC/Motec/Link tuning and fab work. No dyno YET.

NY

Vinny Ten Racing

West Babylon, NY

http://vinnytenracing.com/

One of the most prolific names in sport compact tuning history.

PA

Philly Dyno Works

Philadelphia, PA

http://www.phillydynoworks.com/

FABRICATION

666 Fabrication

Milford, CT

http://www.666fabrication.com/main.html

Owner Jon makes some badass turbo and intake manifolds mostly for BMWs, but he seems to be able to do anything and everything.

RJ's Custom Piping

College Point, NY

http://www.rjcustompiping.com/index.htm

These guys have rave reviews for the custom IC and exhaust piping, and they have one of the only local mandrel benders.

POWDER-COATING

NorthEast Coatings

East Berlin, CT

http://www.northeastcoatings.net/index.php

Owner is a Supra freak so his work is quality and performance coatings are available. Great reviews.

TRG Coatings

New Jersey

http://www.trgcoating.com/

Excellent work with high recommendations from the Honda community. Quick turn-around time.

You must have me confused with somebody else. My car was in the garage (my garage) all last week. I pulled it out on Tuesday and drove it down to the bodyshop...it has been there since (for bodykit work).
