Southeast Massachusetts Performance Shops

So with the track season coming up soon I've been looking for shops perform some work on my car. The problem is I haven't been able to find a good shop thats less than 2 hrs away from my home address. Kaizen tuning is my closest option right now.

I've noticed SE Mass really gets the shaft with motorsports. Shops and tracks are all 1 1/2+ hr away from home.

Looking for
-Custom Alignments. Nothing fancy just want to install camber bolts for now and I don't want the dealer or random shop messing up the alignment or doing a half ass job.
-Part Installs

I get tires and alignments done at Flatout Motorsports in Bellingham. Its a bit of a drive but they know what they're doing.

Conway Autoworks in Hanover does suspension, corner weighting and alignment; Kenny the owner is a wizard. Not like a real wizard, but really adept at building race cars.
