Question Service for 993 in MD????

I have just heard that Taylor Chapman has moved from ASG in Fairfax to a shop in Springfield, which is just toooooo far for me. So my question to you local 993 gurus is who do you use and trust with your baby. I do some work myself like oil changes and stuff but I used to take her to Taylor for a once a year check up and he did some stuff for me....always did a great job and trusted him and his attention to detail.

My ideal local would be Rockville/ Bethesda area

Good to hear from you......hmmmmm depending on the prices they charge they may be doable......do you recommend them from personal use or through word of mouth reports.

Anybody else use these guys for your street car????

Default If Gaithersburg's Not to Far

I use Manny Sanchez from MS Airpark Auto. He's a no nonsense kind of guy that's also Porsche certified. He is very knowledgeable, prices are very reasonable and a hell of guy.

Hi, David,

Word of mouth. Never used them. My mechanic is too far for you.

Good to see you posting on the board.

I had an alignment/ride height adjustment done there (AtSpeed) and in my opinion they raked it too far front (the front was too low) so I raised it 4 turns on the PSS9's. It is still lower in the front just not as extreme.

David,
I highly recommend AtSpeedMotorSports. The whole operation is professional, and very friendly. Luke is the main tech and he is very knowledgeable on 993's. I know they support 2 993 Cup cars. The shop is minutes from the MARC train if you work in DC or Balt. Give them a call.
Neil
