Anyone know a good tuner in nj or ny???

I have a 2001' 996tt with a GT700 kit. The car rough idles and between 1000 and 3000 rpm it surges. I have changed spark plugs, checked for vacuum leaks, had diagnostics run at local shops with the help of Todd from EVO and everything checks out. When I had the GT640 kit these problems never existed. Ever since I installed the 700 kit the car has not run right in my opinion. Todd even hooked me up with the Hitachi MAF and new software but it didn't correct the problem. The weird thing is that at full throttle everything seems ok. The car pulls strong and doesn't break up. I have not had the car on a dyno so it may not be running as strong as it should or could. Can anyone give me some advice as to what to do or where to go! I would love to just send the car to EVO but for a tune it's to much money because I'm from the tri-state. HELP!!!!

EPL is the place to go! I've worked with Tony remotely MANY of times and EVERYTHING has been perfect! I wish I was closer so I could actually make it to the shop to see the magic happen in real time!

EPL is so close and working with Tony is a real treat. My experience was #1 rated. I know there are other tuners close by but he is a proven entity. Good luck with the shopping.
