They can do it, they can tune it. They build motors there as well-mostly LSX stuff. You are in NYC? I work in NYC. Take Holland or Lincoln or GW to Garden State pkwy-they are like 5 min off exit 117.

They are not off 117, that is Middletown, NJ, but coming from the south I think it's 135 but not 100% sure, coming from NY it may be 137 but run a Mapquest or use a GPS.

And here is another one as well.
And yes, you can take either exits 135, 136 or even 137...depending on traffic/time of day they all work well.

Exit 117 will get you to Jeff at JTL Automotive, but he doesn't do that kind of work. He does need to get me my race engine back soon though so I can finish my car for the up-coming season.
