Default Looking for Mechanic Shop in Tampa/Orlando

Does anyone know of a good person/shop to help work on my car. I have tried two shops but I don't feel comfortable with them. I try and do/learn as much as I can but it would be nice to have someone who know the 944's look at it. I live in Lakeland Florida, it is in between Tampa and Orlando on I4. Thanks for the input.

European Performance in St Pete. Porsche specialists for about 30 years and very familiar with 951's. They just got done with quite a bit of work on my car and one of the owners is currently building a 2.8L 951 race car.

If you call ask for Mickey Jr.

Thank you. I will give them a call. Do you know if they do dyno testing there?

They don't, but there's a local place they use. Was just asking them about that this week for before/after purposes.

Very nice! Let me know when you're over there, I'd like to come and check out the KW setup... in the process of figuring out suspension for my car.

Will do. I am shooting for the beginning of April for the install. I have to go out of town for a week. PM me your number and I will text your when I go. I really been hoping to go to PCA events so I can meet other 944 enthusiast. Look forward to meeting you and Mickey. Have a good weekend.
