Anyone had Tuan@Ptuning (N.VA) cornerbalance & align your NSX? Other recommendations?

Couple of years ago, I had my NSX corner balanced and aligned at Curry's Auto (Manassas, VA) and it ran fine, other than that it had visible rake (see http://www.nsxprime.com/forums/showthread.php?t=101006&highlight=alignment). I've been tinkering with ride height & just got new tires so, I thought I'd try a different shop this time. Need to get it done right for sure. May travel a bit outside local MD/DC/VA area, if needed. FYI currently lowered on JRZ's with 215/40/17 & 265/35/18 Dunlop Z1Star Spec tires on 17X8 & 18X10 Advan T5 wheels.

Recommendations/comments appreciated.

Need to to get my NSX corner balance after installing the JRZ, I was thinking about PTunning, but I need to go by and talk to them first.

Tuan at P-Tuning installed my supercharger. He's pretty knowledgeable and the shop is pretty impressive. I have no complaints.

Yes, Tuan is the man for alignment, he did 4 wheel alignment on my evo and setup for circuit cross really good.
I think they have the best alignment tools and machine that flat to the ground so it's fit for lower car.

I personally prefer:

The care and treatment they do to each and every vehicle is bar none the best. Everything is designed for lowered vehicles and the owner is the only person I've ever trusted to touch my car.

FWIW I did not hear back from Tuan after leaving 2 messages. Let me know how your experience turns out.

Both Ptuning and Function:TUNED do great work as I have dealt with both of them. For alignments Id definitely go to Ptuning. They have the best equipment for the job.
