Enzo Performance gone?

So was having an issue and was told by Enzo to come in on Monday(11/21)... I pulled up and everything is closed... googled and noticed it said permanently closed online.. website - down.. instagram page - gone...

Anyone have any idea? I'm sure if they relocated there would be a notice and they would have said so last week...


Failed inspection due to i think catless downpipe and needed to speak with them.. not reading 02 sensor - if anyone can help. please pm me thanks! located on Long island NY..

Was there any mention of a Trump election and moving out of the country ?

I hear Canada is really cool this time of year.

God forbid anyone of you trolls ever have a business. Talking shit like crazy...

Enzo is solid, his tunes are reliable, and he is an all around awesome guy to know.

He has gone way beyond to help ppl out which is more than i can say for other tuners that take your money and leave you with a misfiring car never to help you.

Than someone random newbie tuner buys a tune from BR and everyone jumps on thier dick cause he shows HUGE dyno numbers. They don't tell you that the car was sprayed with c02, or ran race gas, or the dyno gain was turned way up and the car had to be flatbed, towed to BMW because it blew up the car.

The whole motorcycle plug story sounds false, and dude changed from Enzo tune just because he was getting misfires and didn't even think to change plugs first? Ronanz you know his tune was solid and reliable.

I can only assume that his staff has been lacking, no replies to emails, phone calls, and they had to go. Enzo was out of town this weekend and probably got to the shop late to open it.

Before you get keyboard commando, this is a business, and things happen.
Money, bad employees, trolls posting false stories on IG and forums.

From what i'm hearing, everyone will be very pleased with the direction Enzo Racing will be going.

I've heard way more horror stories than I've heard good stories, with solid evidence. But what do I know, I drive an extremely unmodified BMW and have zero experience in performance mods and tuning.......

Folk's I am completely 120% satisfied with my tune from Enzo and was looking to do more work after winter, this in no way was talking "smack" about Enzo. I live 2 towns over and absolutely love Enzo himself - very humble and genuine guy. I have had 0 issues with the tune and he worked on my car himself.

Just was stating facts that it says on google "permanently closed" I will try and get in touch with Enzo..

The IG kids, that left Enzo and went to another shop in NJ who than blew his car up so they had to ship the cars out to cali to get tuned?

It's all BS. Kids today think they can swap every part, upgrade turbos, add meth, run full e85 in the car and have it as reliable as a daily driver only to have the same shit happen from another tuner.

I understand this is a forum, but theres more shit talking than actual facts.

I was Enzo, than left because I thought i could do better numbers from other local tuners who have huge videos on IG. The car never ran right, they all said i needed to buy more parts in order to fix their tunes. What kind of tuner is that?

I went back to Enzo, and he took care of me, car hasn't had one problem since.
The car is a track car, and I drag it. It gets put through abuse. I can't say anything bad about the tune, has never failed or caused any CEL.

As far as the workers that were spinning wrenches an the lack of quality control, there's a reason they are looking for new employment.

I completely understand and in so many regards what you're saying makes perfect sense as far as a business goes and what has been happening there.

I'll add that I totally did hear that Enzo is a super cool and very nice guy, actually from a couple of different tuners. So no lack there of knowledge and respect there. "Personally never met or spoke to him"
I think Enzo should have been more involved in the forums especially on here. I understand it's a big business and he needed help. But I think the group of folks he chose especially on the forums to run things is what started the domino effect. Too many folks stabbing at the back maybe.

Honestly I never once got a chance to speak to Enzo himself, it was always someone else "when" I could get them to answer the phone and especially Renato that had no idea what he was even saying to me when I asked questions about tuning the MEVD, I always got the Enzo is away and can't be reached. To be fair to me as a paying customer if that's how you run a business then yes naturally clients will find new homes.

I do want to add that the motorcycles spark plugs story is true and that it was 100% what was found in Rons car. He never touched anything but his JB4 device. Not saying Enzo himself had anything to do with it but perhaps his now unemployed mechanics did and it's why the guy is trying to clean house I don't know.

With all that being said I hope Enzo "himself" by himself finally realized what he needed to Redo and has started to clean house with the wannabe wrench turners. And hopefully he does very well on his own and I personally wish him the best of luck.

Just to set the record straight:

Enzo has not disappeared, the business is being restructured and will be renamed Enzo Racing. He is still operating out of the same shop and can be reached at EnzoRacing@gmail.com.
