Deman Motorspot - http://www.demanmotorsport.com/demanmotorsport/ is across the river from you. I take my 964 to Advanced Automotive - (845) 562-0346 in Vails Gate, also close by across the river. The owner Tom is a great guy and owns a 964 (and a 944 Turbo race car for that matter). Rennwerke is in Elmsford - (914) 592 4006. I don't know anything about them, but they are PCA approved, as are the other two. Good luck!

I used Rennwerke for a PPI (I passed on the car) and was very impressed. They seemed to know 964s very well.

Agree with the recommendation of REnnwerke in Elmsford. Cheech (owner) has worked on my SC and 993. Knows Porsches.
