R53 Tuning Shops in the NorthEast?

Ive seen a lot of options for piggy backs or mail out my ecu and get it back with a tune... not interested in any of that. i prefer dyno tuning on the spot. So who in the northeast does tuning? I live in the western part of NY state. about 2 hours from buffalo and syracuse. 4 or 5 hours north of philly and pittsburg, 6 hours west of boston. 4 hours west of NYC... any help is greatly appreciated.

I have a fair amount of mods planned for my car so its going to need a tune probably early to mid spring.

Check with Jan at Revolution Motor Works. I believe he has a tuning party planned for Philly in the spring. Some info on RMW, modmini has a RMW tune and puts down some awesome numbers. I have not personally use RMW yet, but that is my planned tuning source.

On my '03 MCS: 15% pulley and dyno tune done at Behe Performance, now in Beltsville, MD near Washington (www.beheperformance.com). Excellent results.
