Check out SSI: https://ssi-auto-motorsports.business.site/

They work on street cars and race cars. Ask for Sloan, and let him know the Dorki's sent you.

While they are in Columbia, that is not far from Baltimore. Benchmark does great work at a fair price.

2nd for Sloan at SSI. Worked on my 996 and Cup cars. He builds Spec Boxter's and knows the mid engine platform well.

Definitely SSI. Sloan and his team are amazing. They have done extensive work on both of our Caymans for several years. We drive all the way from Silver Spring!
