Tuners/shops near Old Saybrook CT?

Hey guys

Looking for a good shop for tuning, suspension work, engine stuff, dyno a plus. Location within 30-40 miles of the shoreline area (Old Saybrook) is a plus too.

I see from searches that Yarrowsport in RI is listed. Anyone have any recommendations? Thanks

I can't really recommend any "MINI-familiar" shops in the area, I do all my own work/mods so I don't really need one.
If you want to Dyno, go up to Swift Motorsports in Norwich.
http://www.swiftmotorsports.com/
They do mostly Subaru, Honda, anything turbo, etc, but they are good guys and know what they are doing. They have a really nice Dyno there and the rates are reasonable.

Let me know if you need help with anything on your MINI.

EDIT: I put together a Dyno day at Swift last year, so they are not totally in the dark as far as MINI goes.

Thanks Partsman. I'd love to have a mini knowledgable shop nearby, but that's nice and close for a dyno, beats driving to the east hartford area. Thanks!

You're welcome.
I plan to head up to Swift soon to get a few pulls in, i've done a few things since the last visit. I want to see what my MINI's putting down now before some more stuff goes on.

BTW, I looked at your STi on nemini.org, very nice. If I only had the cash.

Thanks Partsman Pass on the word, I'll bet someone has the money for the STI It's just perfect to build that 400hp beast you know you want

I am just one car too many atm, and my wife says one needs to go, and it's not gonna be the elise!
