Good Porsche Shop in Nortern NJ

Hey guys, I was wondering if you could recommend a really good mechanical shop for Porsches in Northern, NJ. I am planning to swap my Fabspeed exhaust system for the stock setup (the fab speed is too noisy for my taste as a daily driver!) and would like to know a good shop that can do this type of work in Northern NJ. Also, if anyone would be interested in my fabspeed set up, please let me know. It has only about 12,000 miles on it and is in great shape. Thanks for any help! Also, if you haven't seen it yet, please check out the pictures of my new car on the 996 Turbo Forum.

protosport

i do a ton with protosport in butler nj. a great great shop. super knowledgeable but more importantly, they have a huge focus on quality of their work. pride of authorship i might call it. they maintain my turbos, the 993s, th e964s and my RS. they are in butler NJ, about 10minutes north of me in elmwood park, NJ. their prices are really good, but mainly, they are straight up. i have them in my warehouse often, i leave them there, they do some of the work on my site, and lock up behind themselves, thats how much i trust them.
jon and paul ar ethe owners, ask for them. tell them steve from saddle brook referred you. google protosport porsche in butler. dont have the phone# with me.
if you want to discuss it more, pm me and i'll send you my cell.
regards

Another vote for Protosport... Also there is a new shop in Westwood called KMD. They are relatively new to Porsche but not to Germans...

I just did my recent exhaust work with Protosport. Very happy with their work. Do you have a contact for someone at KMD?

Nevertheless, I highly recommend Protosport as well.

Feel free to PM if you need more info.
