New Dyno Dynamics Dyno and tuning location - EVENING hours now available!
how far is this place from pruven? the good thing about pruven was you could get all your installation and tuning done in the same place
is this true with this new place or are local people going to have to get installed somewhere else then drive to the facility untuned?

My Name is James Kakaletris and I am the owner of Al's new dyno home here at The Shop, in Norwalk, CT
I wanted to introduce myself and my facility to the members of the Evolution Community and we plan to host an open house FREE dyno day soon to personally welcome many of you in the local area.
I have been in the automotive industry for 20 + years.
I am ASE certified master technician with factory experience . . . BMW, Porsche, Audi, Volvo, VW, Mercedes factory trained technician.
In addition, I have a extensive background in car high performance modification and racing. I was one of the pioneers of import drag racing and many members may recall my Black Porsche 911 Turbo drag car which won the IDRC fastest street car race 3 years in a row - 1997, 1998 & 1999. The best time on that car in 1999 was a 9.56 @ 161 mph,
Although, I have not been active in organized import racing for the past several years, I have been very involved with the local import scene and many mebers in this area are familar with my current line up of fast rides . . . . which include
2006 Z06 Vette - 620 whp without nos - all motor
1996 R33 GTR Skyline - 550 + whp on pump gas
1995 Supra TT T70 Single turbo with built motor and AEM
1997 911 TT 1,000 plus whp - carbon fiber body, full cage, lexan etc
I welcome all the Evolution members to stop by and tour my facility anytime. We at The Shop are exited to welcome Big Al here and look forward to servicing your repair and tuning needs.
My new affiliation with Big Al has sparked my interest to return to the race scene so we will be seeing you all at the local events next season.
