Jake,
In Feb. and Mar. Tanz Tech Auto Repair (Sarasota) was on the list. After calling them I wanted to make sure they were legit. You have some good folks up there that answered questions, w/o attitude, and debunked Tanz. Humility ain't your forte.

I have...

.....participated in one of Jake's online engine seminars and it was spectacular.

Even better, however, I shipped my 2004 Boxster S to Jake's shop and had his staff replace my IMS with the "IMS Solution" and also replace the clutch, rear main seal, water pump, air oil separator, spark plugs, serpentine belt, idler pulleys, and cam chain tensioners.

I've put 10,000 miles on the car since I got her back and am happy as a clam.

My wife and I have enjoyed drives to Missouri, Lone Star LeMans in Austin, Charleston, Savannah, and Deal's Gap in this wonderful machine since Jake did the work.

As part of his IMS service, he installed a spin-on oil filter adaptor and I am running Napa Gold oil filters as per his recommendation with the Lake Speed/Jake Raby developed Driven DT40 motor oil.

I want to shout out loud from the highest mountain top how wonderful the entire experience has been. I've never been happier with an automotive service.

My wife was VERY worried, and very vocal(!), about me buying a Porsche Boxster to replace our faithful Miata that has never let us down over 400,000 miles.

She's a believer now.

THAT is priceless.

Thank you Jake Raby!!!!!!

Jake...

...Indeed!

I'm driving her to Fredericksburg, Texas this weekend for the "Boxstoberfest" drive in the Texas Hill Country.

And the following weekend we are driving her to Colorado for a week of Aspen peeping and canyon carving.

And in October she is taking us to F1 at COTA.

After 23 years of Miata ownership, this Boxster is the dream car I always wanted and your service has made that dream a reality.

I'll be there on Friday with my arena red Boxster and maybe my friend Capt Mike and his pastel yellow boxster. Come say hello if you see us
