Looking for a Bay Area shop that can perform performance tune
« on: March 01, 2010 - 04:35:50 PM »
I dont have the time or resources down here to do a proper tune of my car and I am looking for a shop (preferably one with a dyno) that properly tune my Challenger. I would prefer one in the Silicon Valley area, but would consider else where in the Bay Area if the quality of shop was there.

The guys at Mopar Engines West in Newark are supposed to be the best.  They're very free with advice and have loads of experience.  We didn't know about them when we putting our car together, but have heard good thing since.

I'm thinking they must because their website says that they dyno the engines.  In any case, it would be worth a call, and if that's not exactly their line of work, they could point you in the right direction.

I just spoke to Angie and they don't. Asked her for recommendations, but she didn't give me any. So I went to Joe's garage, but he was in a bad mood so I left. His hot tank broke down. So he was a little hot headed to talk with.
