Tunning shops north of San Francisco?

Hi everybody!
Ive heard good and bad about S-car-go in Marin. But I'm looking for a good shop to buy and gain info on a tune,exhaust,clutch combo. Plus if I'm not racing and not rich what can I expect to pay including install? Or how many of my motorcycles will I have to sell? Ha Ha Ha

I have been in contact with Mike at The Racers Group recently. They will be installing an eRam kit on a 997 turbo. You might contact them as they seem very competent. I will add them to our growing list of preferred shops.

I would decide the tune/exhaust/clutch combo you want and then search for a shop to install it. Don't limit yourself to the North Bay. LOTS of great shops in the area!

I am too looking for a compitent Porsche service/performance shop. Not so much in the Marin area but perhaps I'd be willing to drive to the South Bay Area.
I've narrowed it down to trackspec autosports in Fremont or Infinte auto tech in San Jose(giac dealer)
Both shop I've heard decent things....I'm yet to find out soon...

Found a good shop in Daly City

So Junipero-Serra Porsche Mercedes did rotors/pads and a cat back exhaust Install for me. Labor was $916.00 and they were done a day early. Jimmy is the owner and has been in biz for 16 years. Super happy.

Sharkwerks. In San Jose. They are the best.

They did a great job on my Turbo. New lowering springs, beautifully done.

Check them out.
