Performance shop in WA

[69_luv]

Does anyone know of a DSM performance shop for tuning/building in Washington? I am tired of trying to work my cars problems, and would rather just give it to a shop to tune/fix the problems.

Any performance shop would work, but I would prefer a shop that fellow DSM'rs have gone with their turbo charged vehicles.

Thanks guys.

I had www.hermanracingservice.com put together a 2.3L motor for me.

I also recently found out about this place- www.pinamotorsports.com .

Auburn / Kent area.

Good luck!!

whats wrong with your car? Anything I cant do myself I would take to pina(i.e. fabrication) because paying for labor sucks. They are pretty good. Good luck.

Yeah and while you are at Pina ask Andreas how fast his 30psi g-vr4 went at the track :laugh: :thumbdown

I have heard alot of good about PINA.

I am just getting really tired of trying to tune the car.
1. Can't get more than 10psi (tried actuator/BC's/leak check...)
2. Car is really really hard to start (tried fuel pump/rewire)
3. Car chokes and sputters, and then boosts above 3500rpms


So I just want to give it to a shop and let them work these last bugs out, have them get it tuned and ready to roll.

I was thinking about paying someone to install my alarm, and shaved door kit. I only need someone to installe the door poppers, and cylinoids, I can do the body work.

So I will give Pina a call and see what happens.

Thanks for the input guys.

I went to PINA, and was real impressed. They knew these cars better than most any place I had been to. And they were alos very fair rgarding pricing. I was real happy with them and would gladly drive 5 hours again to go there

Pina is a great shop - Andre and Nick know their DSMs and are very friendly and willing to answer questions. It's the only shop that touches my car

Some people have had good experiences with Herman Racing, but I had some negative business with them in the past, PM if you want details.
