Im in boston & went with a place called German Performance services:
http://www.germanperformanceservice.com/

they mainly deal with BMW's but they are a distributor of KW coilovers. It took all day to get them in.

A bit late to the party. I was thinking about doing the same thing to my '07 3.6L, even though it is n/a. It has been a year since the upgrade, so I have a couple questions:

- What are your driving habits? easy-going, spirited, a mix?
- Any specific numbers related to fuel efficiency improvements, e.g "16mpg to 18mpg in the city"? I'm trying to figure out what my return will be in fuel savings, if any, based on my driving habits.
- Added wear and tear? What have you replaced, if anything, since the upgrade possibly due to the new tuning?
- Did you end up getting to a dyno? Got some hard numbers for HP/TQ (or w/e units you prefer)?
- Any regrets specifically with Unitronic? Wish you would've gone with a different one (e.g. APR)?

Glad to hear the throttle is more responsive!
