Porsche 996 PPI in New York? What does a PPI cost?

Guys,

Where can I have a decent PPI of a 996 in New York? Formula Motor sports charges 600 Dollars for a PPI. I find that wayyy expensive compared to other PPI's in other states.

Any other recommendations?

What do you mean by "New York"? Of course Manhattanites think that means the City, but those of us who live in the 99.999999 percent of the State that actually has real trees and grass don't.

If you are in the City, how far are you willing to travel?

Wel, im living in the Netherlands actually. The current owner is willing to take the car to a nearby Porsche dealer/specialist to do a PPI.

The current owner lives in Maspeth, NY nearby manhattan i think

Okay, I know nothing about Long Island (which is where Maspeth is), but I'm sure other Pelicans will have good ideas for you.

Do a search for Rundtners racings in LI. They did the PPI w/leakdown on my car and have been recommended by others. Figure $300-450 for a good PPI

Just as a measure regarding cost, I paid about $500 for a PPI with compression & leakdown checks. That was a year ago in Houston, TX. I got quotes for a little less in metro Atlanta where I was also looking at cars. So $500-600 doesn't seem out of whack to me for the NY metro area.
