    Just had these guys work on my car, and they are incredible to deal with. Very honest and they really know Porsches. Thanks everyone for the suggestions.

    What about the dealer?

    Certainly for a 996 I would go to South Centre, those guys are all current and are local racers as well as enthusiasts, I would bank my money on the guaranteed work there before trusting anyone else.

    and yes that is where my 911 goes. I have seen the results and horror stories from other shop who 'know' what they are doing.

    Not that Marc is a bad guy, just do your homework, everyones opinion got there somehow.

    Hey lets see a pic of your car, what is a strosek 996? Is it the GT2 kit or a 996 with the body bits?

    Happy trails

    Marc is a great guy, had some A/C work done on my car there, and an inspection. Good guy to deal with, very fair. I find the dealership is more interested in keeping their business afloat than the cars that are brought in. Marc seems exactly the opposite. He cares about your car, first and foremost. Definately reccomend him!

    This is probably a bit late though...
