Default Reputable Dyno shops in Southern Cali.?

Ok, I was wondering if anybody knows any great dyno tuning shops here in So. Cal? I heard import builders in Anaheim is good but did anyone have any positive experiences dyno tuning from there and any other places in the Orange County area. I heard Area 51 is a good place to extract most HP but I had no luck contacting them. Anybody know about this place?

So if anybody had a good dyno tune that actually extracted some good overall numbers please tell me about the place where you dyno tuned at in So. Cali. I want to get the most hp tuning my car with a experienced tuner. By the way, if you want to know my mods in my 94 GSR they are: AEM ITR cold-air, JG 65mm TB, Skunk2 manifold, CTR intake cams, skunk2 cam gears, B&M FPR, AEM pulleys, RS*R header, hi-flo cat, greddy SP exhaust, Apexi V-AFC and b16a2 tranny. Anybody with the similar mods have any numbers that have been tuned?
Thank you.

Go to Dynamic or Import Builders in Fullerton...A51 is out of business now, but if any of you guys know Sharon who used to work there she's going to open up her own shop.

Dynamic Autosports.

They've had a Dynojet for almost 10 years now. As for their tuning? 80% of the top racers have stepped foot in there one time or the other.

thanks guys. I wanted to go to dynamic but i called them and they told me that the old tuners are not availible rite now and in a week or two they will be getting a "new" tuner in place. I don't know about that now. On the other hand, Jeff at import builders is availible to dyno tune my car. Does he do a good job? Anybody know from past experiences or stories? Thanks guys.

That's weird. Do you really need to get your car dynoed this week? I'd highly suggest you would wait. It'll be worth your time. Aries is one of the best tuners out there.
