Wow, I'm surprised no one has answered... I mean, there was a whole thread on basically the same thing. I guess I'd suggest doing a search and trying to find it...

Shops are like religions, everyone has their choice and good luck convincing them otherwise.

With that said, based on a proven track record I only go to Synergy Motorsports. If you call them just expect a 4-5 week wait as they are slammed.

Luke stands behind his shop and every car that leaves there. He's a pro around the our cars and knows them in and out.

I'm headed to Newtech Performance in Hayward for my first time. Going based on good tuning feedback from members on here. Will let you know what I think. I used to take my Vette to TPS Motorsports, just looking for something a little closer. Their work was excellent too, but a little high in price and a bit far. Good luck! Just trying to help out with my $.02

Good tuning feedback? I am not sure who you have been talking to, but please ask around a bit more before going to Newtech. They have blown 3 engines that I can name and has forced dozens of people to get retunes.

Out of all Bay Area shops, the only thing all of us can agree on is that Newtech is the worst shop in the bay...
