Default Best shop in South Florida area???

Wow, its been a long time since Ive been in a domestic lol... Ive been racing turbo 4cyl's and getting bored with it. Thought it would be fun to play with a 11 CTSV. My biggest problem is all my sponsors are import guys and dont even want to touch it due to lack of experience with LSA's. So I need to find a reliable preofessional shop to do some of the mods and tuning. Who in this area is reliable and trustworthy. I was going to use Norris but hear he moved. I guess he still does an occassional tune trip but I need some installs done as well. Any help would be great guys, thanks... can travel upwards towards Atlanta if needed....

Call Dan at Masport in Boca.Not only is he one of the best tuners in the country he moved into a 12,000 sq ft shop with 2 other companies 1 is a trans shop the other is a speed shop which does installs,fab work, engine rebuilds, and custom chassis work. This is a one stop shop were the quality is unmatched ANYWHERE.

Thanks guys for both shops info. I'll look into both as Im excited to start something new. As for plans. Gonna start slow. Basic mods-Kooks headers, corsa exhaust, pulley, tune, etc. Then, gonna set it up more for road course. Im kind of tired of going straight. Ive done a few road course track days and really enjoyed the change. A few of my records were finally broken after almost 3 years in the evo but I really dont want to go down that road again. I want to do something different. I was playing with a C63 for a bit but its horrible on a road course. Just cant put enough tire under it. Ive been in love with the CTSV for awhile now. Looks to be an awesome performer and the price point on mods is a no brainer. Just need to find a reputable shop to do some of the things I dont like doing on a garage floor lol... Thanks for the thumbs up on the evo and I look forward to having some fun in the ctsv. I'll have to visit both these shops and check them out. Thanks...

Thanks for the props, peeps. For my own 2-bit chime-in, I'd also like to point out that we have over 150 years of high performance experience in-house. That's our most valuable asset to any customer. Oh, and we're all charming mother truckers who happen to be sexual tyrannosauruses around the ladies.

"Bunch of slack-jawed ******* around here. This stuff will make you a god
damned sexual Tyrannosaurus, just like me" -Jessie Ventura in the movie Predator

I will vouch for Dan being charming and charismatic but have no clue on the Tyrannosaurus status personally!

And of course he is a damn good tuner!


Dan, you made some kind of mistake. Your tune on my car too damned good! The car hasn't needed anything. It's been a long time. I will have to make a trip just to say hello.

I'd vouch for either shop, been to both. Have had more experience with lashway and will say they are extremely fair and tell it like it is. Good guys there.

Thanks for both shops on chiming in. Thats a plus for both and I appreciate it. Ive got to head out of town for two weeks but when I get back I'll stop in. Trying to read up on the car too and get a good mod path. I hate doing things twice Thanks for the help guys. Kind of out of my element here but need to do something different... I look forward to meeting some new people and shops and getting started with a new toy...

ill look for that cts-v on the highway

Lashway gets my vote!

In house dyno and tuner is one of the shops owners - so care goes into your tune, and the job isn't done until perfection is reached.
