Evo shops in Orlando, Florida

I'm heading down to Disney World Sunday for a week. I'm not driving the Evo, but wouldn't mind checking out some shops that have parts. We have nothing here its all internet.

Whatever you do stay away from TTP all of the others i've mentioned before know their stuff real well and will treat you good.If you go to CFT talk to Rolo,if you go to Kings talk to Sergio,i know these people personally and i know they'll treat you good.

TTP just built my 2006 RS. The build thread is in my signature. 740whp/540tq @28-29psi. They have built other evos for me too and always had excellent results. Best of luck to you. Josh.

As someone that's been in the game for a while i have seen the best and worst of most of the shops in the Central Florida region,many of whom i know personally,i don't doubt TTP has done good here and there but i've also seen the other side of the coin and it's not pretty,didn't really want to tell any specifics since TTP can't defend themselves in the forums (account disabled),and i don't know wether or not my customers and friends would like their specific situations aired in public,so it stands as it is just my opinion

Ps.If you want more specifics i can pm you more info on the subject,it's not my intention to bash anybody but i have plenty of evidence that supports my opinion.

So I'm in Orlando for 2 weeks and decided to stop by TTP's shop using the address on the website. They are no longer there and according to the shop's new owner they went under. Are these guys still in business? They really need to update their website.

i do not think they have a shop anymore you can ask anarchy99 he would know more....yes i would never go to ttp again but ppl do make mistakes and i blame myself for my lack of knowledge which led to allot of issues.

i love prs i would never go anywhere else they are the only reason i kept my evo. they do everything in house which 99% of the shops do not in my book its a top notch organization. They answer my 100s of questions and will continue to get my buisness even if i switch to the gtr.

Yes TTP is still in business, they are appt only and are too busy to accept walk in traffic as it states on their phone line and on several other forums. Their lease ended at their old location, didn't want to renew there and they moved to a different location and also travel throughout the country again to do group custom tuning like they used to. If you really wanted to get a hold of them at one of their new locations, their number is on their website.
