Default PPI in Boston

Anyone have a recommendation for a PPI in Boston, specifically Kingston, MA.

If anyone is near there I could really use a local opinion on a car as well.

Thank you very much for the recommendation. It looks like this location is about 60 miles from the car.

Is that a reasonable distance to ask someone to take the car?

Any suggestions closer to Kingston?

Maybe Jerry could go to the car instead.

Don,t know where Kingston is but if it is north of Boston you could also consider Rick Hetherington at Autobahn performance although I also agree that Jerry is as good as they get.

No one that I can think of but if the seller is motivated why not ask him to take it to Jerry for you?

He'll drive it Jerry.

The bummer is that Jerry can't do it this week. The seller is out of town next week and I was trying to get it all settled so that I could pick it up next Saturday.

Patience is a virtue Grasshopper We waited over a month for our GT3... $$ transfer issues, shipping from CA to NJ, etc. Well worth the wait! You'll get there... It will just make it that much sweeter...

There are few shops, see attached
I have heard good things about the shop in Natick (EPE), but that is about 20-30 minutes away.
I know that the shop in Stow (Good Rep, 45 minutes) has had Red Sox/Bruin players that went there
Call EPE, some shops will go do the PPI on site.

Hey TomGT3,

Thanks for the recommendation. It looks like I'm going to use EPE. I spoke with Jerry today. He actually knows the car very well. He serviced it for the prior owner. He also knows the current owner pretty well.
