I've only had my car dyno'd by them but that experience was great. I'm just starting to learn about and understand my car and they took the time to explain the whole dyno process and print outs. I definitely have plans to have them do work on my car! Great Shop!

They exemplify this in all cases as well. They take the time to discuss and show you what they will/are install. I was there the other day and George was showing me some things like what the AFR 225 look like, the Fast 90, etc. My point is that they are not a "drop the keys off and we will call you when its done with the bill " If you have questions/concerns they will answer them and be very honest with you.

We all enjoy taking the time to sit down and talk with our customers. That is one reason why we host the dyno day every month. You can probably guess at an average rate of 2 cars per hour @ $40 per car we are not making a killing on the dyno events. We do it because we enjoy it and it gives us time to sit back and semi-relax for one day to talk with our customers. I treat my customers as friends and enjoy what we do here.

Give me a call anytime 973-340-4069.

I am sure its a great shop and I would love to try it out, but I cant really justify driving 1.5 hours for it unless I was getting a pretty good deal.

Thats true. I would rather go to my local Pep Boyz instead of driving an 1.5 to Dez Racing to see Slowhawk and get excellent service, quality and price. NOT!!!!!!! The distance is not what matters, its the quality. And from what I hear TTP has that quality

1.5 hours away really isnt that bad to travel for great work and customer service as well as great pricing on parts... i know many people who travel 3+hrs just to get some quality work done
