A place where I can take a specific car, and they can give me options for real tuning based on what I am doing with the car. Something to actually improve the handling and power curve of the vehicle, without making it look like shit.

Mugen did that back in the day, maybe they still do, but I havent seen much in the way of that other than aero parts and some higher spring rates for a while. They did have there Superchargers for the Fit.

There are still some out there, but they seem to be few and far between. The only ones you still here about are AMG and MOPAR.

I guess I’m the opposite of you. I really like tuner cars. But I like TUNER cars, not cars with a bunch of crap bolted on.
AMG is hardly a Tuner now. They are pretty much a manufacturer

Jun, Mine's, Spoon, Top Secret, Amuse are just a few top tuners I can think of and of course there are more.

I see that Z28 can't tell the difference between a Tuner and a shop and bolt parts on for customers
