Tuning shops in New England?

Howdy-

The warranty is just about up on my 2012 Clubman S and I'd like to start souping up my car.
I know very little about auto mechanics and was wondering if there were any shops that could tune my mini for me?
I'm located in CT. Are there any shops around me? Or in New England? or NY?
I'd do something like a tuning-port myself, but as far as I know, one doesn't exist for my car.
From the factory, I have the JCW tuning kit. I also have wheels/ tires and the awesome custom graphic.
I'd appreciate any help. Thanks

here's a picture of my car so far-

Get ahold of the guys over at Helix in PA. They are doing a tune party June 12-14. http://helix13.com I had heard of a shop in Danbury area that was starting to tune MINIS. Not sure how far they got with that though and can't remember the name. I know they do a lot with subarus

Not sure if this is close to you or not as I am in the US.

Check with Mike Fischer at New Country (MINI) in Hartford CT. He'd probably know.

Or depending how far, maybe ask Greasy's garage in Worchester MA. Being a garage always working on MINIs, they'd probably know.
