Porche Race Tuners
Anyone know of any good tuners in the NY,NJ or MA area's who specialize in tuning Porsche's??? I am looking for an experienced shop who tunes PCA club cars and who have a proven track record. Specifically I want a great suspension tuner that can reliably check my currenty settings and adjust if necessary. I have heard of De Man racing down in Nyack, NY...Are they really good at this??? Any other great tuners out there??? Thanks
Dealer's are out of the question, for I feel Porsche really does not train them well enough to give me the feeling that they know what they are doing in this regard.

Christian,
No doubt DeMan is the place to go. I spent the day there on Saturday and he has tuned his GT1 racing car(heading to Sebring tomorrow for PCA Club racing) to 1000hp at the engine, over 800hp at the wheels. He has a very scientific and mathematically based set of strategies for tuning.
He showed me a number of racing cars that he had taken in from other tuners and from some PCA club racing guys from a great distance. Tuning is his passion and he is an intelligent guy. He is also a very nice guy to work with.

a little further but worth the drive is G&W Motorsports - Call Price Cobb (yes, the same racing legend you are thinking of) 434.822.8120 - they are located at VIR in Va. They Run DP's and Cup cars and do customer tuning.

GT1's...that's good enough for my GT3. He's only around 2 1/4 hours from me. That's the ticket I was looking for...
