Cool New RX-8 Owner in need of Tuner

Help. I was hoping that some RX-8 owners in the NE section of the country could direct me to some decent tuners in the area. I live in Phila and have not found to many people that are qualified to work on the 8. Any help would be appreciated, Thanks

Greddy highly recommends KDR Performance in Shoemakerville, PA. I have been there to get my emange tuned after R flash. Dave did a great job and specializes in rotaries only. In my experience with having my turbo for over a year, KDR is the only rotary tuner in the area that I would trust and have a proven track record. (610) 562-5004 - He is very busy, he had at least 20+ RX7's and 8's in various stages. You may have to leave a message. Once I install the Interceptor I just received, I will be bringing the car to him for tuning.

Sorry to be obnoxious, but a search on Blackwood in the NE forum yielded:
