Exclamation Help Wanted: NYC (and surrounding areas)

We need to find a few Pro Tuners in the greater NY area.

We require you have a dyno on site, a tuner on staff full time, and a good reputation. Please contact me ASAP so that I can send business your way. Knowledge of how computers work is helpful, also be willing to deal with happy customers that want to give you money.

Not yet but we're in Austin. We're working to get JoTech in Dallas going as a Pro Tuner as soon as they get moved into their new building.

I tried with Vinny, he's just too busy to accept more business I think.

As for MRC, after seeing his communication on forums, I'd rather find a shop with better customer handling skills.

Keep the suggestions coming, I need to locate atleast 3-4 Pro Tuners in the greater NYC area. Right now we have 3 in LA and we're expanding as they are all doing fairly well, I know NYC and surrounding areas can support that many also.

Yup! Sent an e-mail to him earlier. Hopefully I'll hear back from him tomorrow.

We are just about to open Pro Tuners in Phoenix AZ, Wilmington NC, and Toronto Canada.

I sent an Email to my local shop and see if they are interested. They have done some work with our car and have tuned a few number of them already. They are more of an Evo/STI/SRT shop though but does have an in house 4wheel DD Dyno. They do a lot of their own work like their own SC kit for Jeep, Mitsu, Hyundai and have their own EMS.

Yeah I actually talked to Dave about a month and a half ago. I'd love to have him on board, just adds to the options our East Coast customers would have. He does excellent work and is willing to push boundaries, he has some really great cars out there on the road.

Call him and tell him whats up I gave him details but he was getting ready for SEMA and wasn't sure what was going on towards the end of the year.

Trust me guys, still working on it. Waiting on call backs. I have another shop in the Philly area that may be on board soon if none of the NYC shops want to jump in.
