Vancouver Tuning Shops

I noticed in another thread that Jay mentioned AJ-Racing. I had not heard of them until that, so I thought maybe we could get a local list of tuners going.

(I'm not affiliated with any of them, but have had work done at a couple of them.)

Only ones I know about for imports are the following:

Garage 5 : In Richmond. Hondas mostly? A co worker had work done here on his B16-swapped EF hatch.

Racing Greed Don't know where the new shop is. I had some work done there, they have an in-House Mustang dyno. I believe that DSMs were what they originally started with, but they had no problems with my JDM Supra.

Forcefed: In Abbotsford. Started with rotaries, have a fast 8-second drag Supra. In-house Dynojet dyno.

Independent Speed Shop: In Langley. I've had work done here, by Bill. He has a good reputation as a wiring and tuning guy. The 'Tuned by Bill' stickers on cars are from here. He's got a pretty sweet AE86. Originally turbo with boxed ITBs, now I heard he's putting in a 1UZFE, also with ITBs. He likes VIPEC standalones, and has a lot of experience on Haltec as well.

Drive Hard: In Richmond. They have an in-house 2WD Dyno Dynamics dyno. I have not dealt with them personally, but I know that Bill from Independent Speed Shop tunes there.

Rocket Rally: In Squamish. Subaru specialist. Sponsor the Vancouver Impreza/Subaru Club on NASIOC, and are a Subaru Canada sponsored rally team. They apparently have a crazy giant fan AWD Dyno Dynamics room. Have not had any work done by them though.

A&J Racing: Richmond. Don't know anything about them.

There must be more. Anyone else?
