HP Sales is a good place. Very very very pricey like Lashway, but I think more upfront and trustworthy. Never heard of any bs with them the way I have about Lashway. And their tuner Jeremy is pretty dang good.

I only found one website and one address for them when I googled it.
5401 East Ave. West Palm Beach, FL 33407
561-651-9501

Haven't spoken to them or been on their website for quite a while either and pricing for certain jobs while still a bit on the high side isn't as bad as I remember either. Just shows how much of a rip off Lashway is. These guys will get you taken care of just as good, probably better. Hopefully they still have the same guy there doing tuning.

IMO there are no decent shops in South Florida that will spend attention to detail from what you want from them. No contact. Just suggestions what needs to be fixed. Which equates to more money.Except, Extreme Performance in Palm City, and even then they are expensive. But will point out flaws that needs to be corrected. You can contact them and there customer service is good.

Take my advice from experience. I cannot say anything about Redline Motorsports because I have not done buisness with them.

I have done buisness with lashway about 5-6 yrs ago. I thought they did good work, but everyone changes there buisness practices for unknown reasons.

Go where you want, but I have dont it all. And If I give my name these shops would know who I am.

I have spent thousands on thrying to get things right with my cars, and am sure have been ripped off. Just trying to help someone else.
I did business with them a while back when they still were at the Pompano location, and it was in fact a very minor job that I needed done ($250 bucks worth) and they were very easy to get ahold of and very helpful with my questions. A few months later I had an issue with the car that while unrelated to the work they had done, they were still kind enough to help me diagnose it for free (this included dyno time). And when that issue arose I had no problems getting in touch with them either. This was almost 2 years ago though. If things have changed with them then that's a shame. But they seemed to be stand up guys from what I experienced. Especially Jeremy. But oh well.

Oh Yea absolutley they are stand up guys, and about 4-5 yrs ago, they would return calls and really seemed concerned. But now with my experience with them for get it.

I wouldnt suggest using Howard at Redline. He did a base tune for me so I can get the car running, most of the stuff wasnt even done. Didnt correct injector size, adjust the fuel, timing, the engine size, etc etc etc. Car idle'd at 2000 RPM's and sounded like horseshit. I nicely tried to arrange a day to bring it up there to have it tuned only to have my phone calls and emails ignored and dodged. I used a different email and got a prompt response.

I got charged $350 for a segment swap and deposit for a tune that he never made good on.
