PTuning

Got an alignment from another place on 2÷2÷2016 after dropping my car on Skunk2 Pro-​S II Coilovers and the camber was so high, I was scraping the inside of my Fender Liner. Took it to Ptuning and was able to get me in for an appointment the same day. I get there an hour early and they took my car right inside the garage. After the 4 wheel alignment, I was REALLY satisfied. I could tell just by looking at the car afterwards that the camber was negative like it should have been. NO MORE SCRAPING!!! Thanks JC and Freddy!

I’ll try and keep this short…
I had been waiting and waiting for someone to install camber bolts and align my car and no one seemed to have the time or was interested… through word of mouth, I came upon Ptuning, and was pleasantly surprised! I initially was just going to have camber and alignment done, but ended up having fenders rolled, alignment done, camber done and dialed in, and coilovers lowered. Daniel walked me through the shop (reminded me of the set of fast and furious) and explained the the entire process of adjusting my car to me. Took just a few days and the difference was night and day. I am completely satisfied with the result, the price, the showroom and the staff. Will definitely recommend Ptuning to anyone that needs work done, and they will be seeing me again!!! Keep up the good work!

Been coming here for years. Great shop and awesome staff. Prices are very reasonable and the work is done correctly.

Cant say much about the work here since i couldnt tell you anything about cars what so ever. I mean seriously i thought the check engine light meant that the car was on.
However, my boyfriend is heavily into cars and we had an appoitment here this past Saturday at 1:30 for a tuning and to put the car on the dyno… not sure what that is
BUT the guys here were super awesome at working with us because we were coming from Va Beach and got stuck in horendous traffic and didnt arrive until 2:30. And still got the job done by 4:30!!!
They are great. Awesome customer service!!!

These guys did an alignment on my Supra about a year ago. After two hours at the shop, they gave the car back to me and told me 3 sides were aligned but the last had a bolt they couldn’t move.
I drove the car home and the car felt ok but a little loose. I then got sent out of state for work for three months. When i got back, i got under the car to bolt an exhaust on. One of the rear bolts had basically twisted out, the other «seized» bolt I heated with a torch for 10 seconds and it twisted right out.
What a joke of a shop. They should stick to Scions if thats their specialty.

A recent visit didn’t go as smooth, as the experience was one that I wouldn’t want to endure again. I would rather look for a different shop. Given the fact I’ve been here plenty of times.

I have a hardtime trusting others with my car, in fact I don’t. I’ve got a case of OCD to make things worse. So like many, I just do all the work I can myself. Well my wife and I just had our second child and if you have kids of your own, you know exactly how busy newborns can be.
My baby… I mean my 1997 Supra needed a rear main seal replaced and I needed it done fast. I just didn’t have the time to do it myself with all of life’s more important responsibilities taking up my attention. There isn’t really anyone in our area that is knowlegable in the Supra platform. I had PTuning do an alignment on my previous Supra years ago. I was very impressed on how clean and organized their facility was.
They are local to me and I decided to give them a chance with my rear main seal as well as an alignment. To give you an idea of what caliber my Supra is, its a 1997 Limited Edition. The chases has 29,000 miles on it. The built motor has less than 2,000 miles on it. The car has made 1400whp on the current setup. What I’m trying to say is I’ve got a good amount of money in to this car.
I called PTuning to see if they would be able to address my needs. I spoke to Freddy. I can not say enough good things about this guy. He was extremely professional at all times with me. He went above and beyond my expectations. He honored all my requests when it came to my car and my conditions. When he told me I could drop the car off Thursday and pick it up Friday, I was very happy with the speedy turn around. I scheduled my appointment for 10am that Thursday. Dropped the car off and got to see it go on the lift.
I got to meet the two gentlemen who would be working on my car. They were both very professional and knowledgeable. I actually felt comfortable leaving the car with them. They were car enthusiasts themselves. They handled my car with the upmost care. The facility is very clean and well spaced, unlike most shops in Northern VA. Tools are organized and each workspace is neat and clean.
Left the car with them and they started on it right away. Got a call the next day as promised and Freddy informed me that my car would be ready. He also shared with me that my pilot bearing was not in the best shape and that he could have a new one from Toyota within the hour! Got a call later in the day with Freddy letting me know that the car was going in the alignment machine and that the rear main seal as well as the retainer housing were now leak free.
Arrived at the shop and the car was done! Got to inspect the car for myself and it was perfect. Freddy and the staff earned a new customer for life. I would definitely recommend PTuning for all your car needs.
Bottom line, no BS, no excuses as to why your car isn’t ready on time, estimate was spot on to final price, perfect transaction and service.

Alright i’ll try to be concise. Basically my frame gave out on my 240sx few years back and I finally found a empty chassis. Did a frame swap and pulled the motor, ran a compression test and the results were 170s across the board so I figured the bottom end was solid. When I removed the head the valve guides were bad and burning a little oil, whoopty doo. Got a head job, new valve guides, valve job, and HG. Put everything together it ran fine and dandy. About 20 miles later one day I wake up and start the car and I smell gas in the driver seat and white smoke coming out the tail pipe, also noticed gas leaking from around the exhaust manifold, so I shut the car off and figured it was a faulty injector. Grad school has recently started so I did not have the time/​patience to deal with the piece so I had it towed to the nearest shop, which was ptuning. and told them that I believe it’s a faulty injector and to just replace it.
Here is where things get a little dicey, the shop calls me and tells me they want to do a boost leak test and a leakdown test to make sure there are not any other issues so I agree. They call me back and confirm a injector stuck open and gave my leakdown results as follows:#1 91%#2 40%#3 86%#4 30%. Now the mechanic said that he wanted to pull the head and check out the timing and valves and whatnot to which I responded with my whole backstory. Now, he performed the leakdown test on the car cold. So it was possible that if there was gas in the cylinder on a cold engine leakdown numbers would not be accurate. I told him to first change out the injector, spark plugs and the oil and redo the test and it ended up being fine. Well, maybe they are trying to be thorough or maybe for a situation like this it is standard procedure, but you know that feeling you get when you think someone is trying to give you the ol’ reach-​around? yea… I got that, and the cost overall was 4 times higher than what I expected. They also did not carry the parts I needed which they told me beforehand which I understand because they do not specialized in SRs.
Overall, I will give them another try soley based on their customer service. The people there all seemed nice and the mechanic seemed knowledgeable and also they were the only shop in the NoVa area I called that was confident on working on my S13 SR20

Brought my G37xS Sedan here to have my suspension adjusted and aligned. And although it was a bit further than what I wanted to travel, the team at PTUNING know what they’re doing and will treat their customers with the best service.
I had someone come grab me to check the car’s height not once, but twice just to confirm and reconfirm what I wanted. These guys are great, and not only that, their shop is great. Mike and Toan were very friendly and spend the time to know their customers. They’re definitely a solid team and I will definitely be back again for more work to be done on my car. Thanks guys!

Preordered their header for the FRS, they were very communicative about their progress and ship date estimates. Header shipped on time, I received it a few days later in California. Outstanding work. They also shared their own cam timing tables with me, so that my local tuner could use them as a starting point. Highly recommended shop!

PTUNING installed Swift springs with Tokico adjustable shocks on my 350z and then performed an alignment with adjustable control arms. The setup was perfect! Their facility is probably the nicest in the Mid Atlantic and their staff are very knowledgable in a wide variety of cars.

I’ll first start off saying this is the cleanest shop I’ve seen. All well maintained and well lit. Beyond that, I first took my 2005 TC to them to have a turbo kit installed. They were great and got good results out of the car. They even helped me out with getting a rental car since the install would take longer than I was able to stay in the area (I live in PA).
It is now about 3 years later and I’ve slowly been buying parts to put their full turbo kit into my FRS. Now that I have everything ready I scheduled for March and can’t wait to drop it off.
Over the last two years that I’ve had the FRS everyone at PTuning have been beyond helpful answering all my questions and allowing me to bounce different ideas off of them for where I want the car to be. Ultimately I wouldn’t trust any other company’s turbo kit with my FRS let alone leave her for this extensive of work with any other shop. It might be a bit of a drive and a week without my car, but I know with PTuning it is worth the time and every dollar as their parts are manufactured with the OCD type dedication that I expect.
Look forward to seeing all of you in March!

Purchased a BRZ turbo kit on top of a lot of other parts from them for a self install.
Ptuning staff went above and beyond to answer all my questions through email, facebook chat and on the phone. The purchase process was painless as well. Communication from the shop from the status of the shipment to tracking information for each package was great. I was never at a point of questioning where my parts were. They were also extremely accommodating with me changing my mind a few times on a few items during the backorder wait.
After the parts were received, the Ptuning staff was there to answer every installation question I had through facebook chat or phone calls, even on the weekends!
I’ve only dealt with Ptuning online and on the phone, and I have ZERO complaints!

Ptuning took care of tuning my Scion tC after I drove up from Georgia… Since I could not find any capable tuner to work with the EMU where I lived within the state.
Mike, Toan, and the Ptuning staff have always done a great job of making sure I was up to speed on what the status of the car was during the tuning session. When I make a phone call they always seem to remember my car making it personable and attempt to answer and provide recommendations for parts.
I always leave their shop with great numbers in whp/​tq gains on the Ptuning RS Spec Turbo Kit.
Honestly the only people I trust to tune the tC and build a well put together motor.
You can buy parts from them on Amazon now and their shop has some fluids and parts along the wall to look at and purchase.
They offer a military discount on some items which is great.

These guys are pros– they really know what they are doing. Their shop is first rate, and their staff and techs are the best.
When you bring a car to to tuner, you have to trust them with your expensive ride, and they take it apart, and put it back together in a way that is custom tailored to your taste. This can involve installing a turbo, suspension, wheels, etc etc. It can get quite complicated.
The customer often has ideas of what to do, but ultimately has to trust the tuner for the best selection of parts. Time after time, Patrick gave me solid advise and was extremely patient as I dialed in the exhaust, ride height, the clutch, and throttle settings…
My car is perfect– exactly what I wanted. Ptuning gets my 100 unqualified recommendation.

They deserve no praise. They’ll gouge the hell out of you, don’t stand by their work, and only do what they think needs to be done. Case in point we took our car there to get tuned. They didn’t really explain what they were going to do, ended up saying they had to refit the supercharger and replace a bunch of parts. Thousands later, the car didn’t not run well and they told us they were going to charge us for a diagnosis.
Seriously? You just had the car and supposedly worked on the car, its not running right and you’re telling me you want us to pay you again because you didn’t do your job right the first time? Stay away from this place.

Great shop who knows their Stuff. In the D. C area they are the folks to go to for meticulous service. They like doing everything the right way the first time around. Granted that may take longer than your average shop how ever they are always fixing other peoples work. Don’t listen to other reviews they know what they are doing hands down as a customer of theirs for about 8 years they are Top Notch!

After a near horror story after a suspension install on my 2011 STI at this shop, I have to give credit where it is due… The only reason I will continue to come to this shop is because of their customer service, specifically Patrick.
I took the car back after a wheel nearly fell off from not being fully torqued. He was able to issue me a partial refund, recheck the torque on everything installed, adjust my ride height, and do a spot alignment check to compensate the risky situation I was put in.
I suggest picking up the phone and calling the shop before judging this shop based off any critical/​negative reviews. They are competitively priced, just wish they were closer to home!

I bought a walbro fuel pump 255 for my 99 prelude and the install kit. Price was under $ 120 for both with military discount. Awesome thing to do guys. Great floor layout, knowledgeable staff and easy to access.
Cons: the fuel filter came out while I was driving. I understand you didn’t manufacture the part but you can be more pleasant when someone calls to complain about a part THEY BOUGHT FROM YOU. The attitude needs work when someone tells you you got something bad or asks for advice on what to do (like what I did). Second, installation prices are through the roof and quality isn’t assured regardless of experience or word of mouth so the offer of guarantee and/​or warranties is highly recommended.

Great facility and staff here.
The showroom/​lobby is very clean and organized — there are lounge chairs to sit while you wait and a bunch of displays of parts to browse. I think it’s pretty cool how they have two of their turbo-​kitted engines on display in the middle of the showroom floor. Didn’t get to see their service area, but I’m sure it’s up to the same standards.
Staff was friendly and helpful in listening to what I wanted (just needed some wheels rebalanced), and they got it done in a very reasonable amount of time. Straight honest service.
Come here for your aftermarket or parts installs, especially if you have a Japanese car (though they will service all makes and models I believe).
