I dont know about top level but I wouldnt go to turbotrix due to a friends bad experience with them tuning. Some of my other friends have their tunes with no problems. What happened was somebody did some datalogs for my friend and it showed that he had a 3 count of knock @ some points in his tune, 1-2 points elsewhere. Another tuner looked @ the log and tune and showed there was way to much timing wich was creating the knock and in turn the ecu was pulling timing to save the motor. My friend then got a tune with no knock from this tuner that helped him out. He tried calling, pming, emailing turbotrix with no response about his troubled tune. So because of this I would not go to them but thats just my opinion. "the shop" in CT can handle the installs and Al does all his tuning there now so you can kill two birds with one stone.

Who is your friend?? I find it hard to believe that he called, PM'd, emailed, and we never responded to anything. I constantly respond to PM's and check emails daily, while answering the phones non stop. If someone EVER had a problem with a tune they could come back immediately to have it checked out. I also find it hard to believe that the car was knocking while it was here being tuned. Mark would never send a car out knocking. Is it possible he got a bad tank of gas when he was doing pulls and logging the car?

I live near TT and had somethings installed and purchased a few parts from them.
Its kind of a small shop but they keep things moving in there from what i could see.
And i drive past everyday and see a lot of evos. there must be a reason people go to them and im sure its a good one.

i've dealt with both of em, great experiences at both places. Sean, Mark and Paul, they know their stuff. and Sean does takes his sweet time to tune the car and make sure everything is perfect.
