Need a NSX Mechanic Recommendation PLEASE!

Folks-

I am in dire need of finding a NSX mechanic somewhere in the Southeast, preferably someone who has worked on modded NSX's with turbos. I have used Cody with Lovefab in the past, as I lived in Southeast Michigan and while he was in Northern Michigan, he would trailer my car to his shop and perform annual maintenance for my car. I have been in Charlotte for the past five years. I have used two shops in the Charlotte area, both of which are now out of business. I even flew Cody down to work on my car last year, as I have a lift in my garage. At this point, Cody is pretty much not involved with his business any longer, so I am forced to find someone else. I would appreciate any recommendations you have. I did a search on Prime, and people have nice things to say about Eiffel in Atlanta, but I contacted them and they don't do any work on turbos. I have a small oil leak on my Precision turbo, so I need someone who knows turbos, and I have an AEM Infinity 6 ECU that has some issues, so the chosen mechanic needs to know AEM as well. I am at the end of my rope, if I can't find anyone to perform various annual maintenance, I may be forced to sell my NSX after 18 years of ownership. I would hate to do that, but I am in a terrible bind not having someone trustworthy I can use. Thanks in advance.
 
Have you talked to source one in Cincy?

I would ideally like to find someone somewhat closer than Cincy. However, depending on what comes about from my inquiry, I may consider them, particularly if they can provide covered transportation of my NSX.
 
I appreciate your offer, but I have some needs beyond basic repair, mainly involving the turbo and the AEM ECU. There are other maintenance items are more mundane, but the turbo and ECU are important to remedy. And, yes, I am a golfer. I am a member of Carmel CC here in Charlotte.


I am located in Asheville
I can help with basic repair work. Ill do some thinking of what good shops are semi local.

Are you a golfer as well?
 
See Ben (redbird92 here on Prime) of Daisy Import Auto Care in Woodbine MD (near Frederick MD). Closer than Cincy and there's nobody better.
 
Ben and I have been talking and he is making arrangements to pick my car up. Thanks
 
Folks - I have been silent on this for months, but I wanted to let everyone know I have had my NSX at Daisy Import Auto Care for the last four months having a complete mechanical refresh. Everything I have heard about Ben being the "NSX whisperer" is 100% accurate. His attention to detail goes beyond anything I could have imagined. He has gone so far beyond the call of duty it would be hard to list his accomplishments here. What I can say is that he has made my car enjoyable, reliable and fun to drive again. I would recommend anyone to Ben, even if it means having your car transported to him. He is that good. And, his rates are reasonable. What is there not to like? PM me with any questions.
 
I would like to recommend Davis Acura for those in the Philadelphia area. Larry Bastanza was my go-to guru for my NSX. I was panicked when he told me he had (hopefully temporarily) retired as my NSX left puddles of oil on my garage floor. It turns out that the car needed its 60,000 mile service (it has 44,000 miles on it).

I can't recommend these guys enough. They have a senior tech who is the only NSX specialist and he spent over 20 hours on my car. They gave me the best pricing they could and they put my car in the show room for a few days. I am now good for another 3.5 years when I will need to do the timing belt next time. They also gave me a loaner MDX that was great. If it were electric I would have seriously thought of buying it as my daily driver!

I was so glad to see that Acura really cares about our cars and wants to keep as many of us on the road as possible.
