^HAHA, those guys got OWNED on that "pinks" show. I'd be seriously pissed if I got embarassed like that on national television.
My vote is Dyno-comp
but it matters what you are looking to do.

I go to Import Autoworks at 91st ave and Northern. He used to work at earnhardt honda and said he was the mentor of the good man caesar we all know. He knows tons of stuff about any cars expecially honda's and especially S2000's. He was the only one I let touch my S and he is the only one I will let touch my type-s. He gets great prices but is a little shorthanded so labor is not always on time, but then again what place has a 100% completion time. I recommend him highly.
623-877-3099 (billy) just say you know Seth from s2ki and he will hook you guys up the best you can. My car will be there in a few weeks getting an IPS makeover.
As far as other shops I know SOS and Dynocomp are highly valued as great shops and I can attest to that as well. Vivid racing wanted 5K for my Seibon hardtop so they are a little pricey. All good shops but all my work got done and will continue to be done at Import.

Thanx for all the help. The S2000 is my daily driver but I will be auto-xing it (as soon as I can find some events around here). I plan on doing I/E and tune for now and upgrading to some oem 17" when I find some. I would love to s/c or turbo the car but that will be a ways out.

Science of Speed in Tempe has a dyno. Their dyno involves removing a rear wheel and hooking up the dyno. SoS is active with the AZ S2000 club and really know the details on S2000's. Not sure what it costs to do an individual dyno, but at one of their open houses a number of members got dyno pulls for a very reasonable rate. Here's a thread with some info from SoS. https://www.s2ki.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=310264

all the work that they did for me in the past till yesterday.
Rear diff:
-comptech reinforced diff
-re/re lsd
-bebuild from scratch new diff components
-4.57r gears
Ap2 Tailights
(looks great)
Re/re radiator for after cooler
Replaces Spark plugs
Only Cesar and SoS gets to touch my car. Personaly if you love your car as much as you should, dont take it to any shop because its 10 dollars cheaper on labour, or some other people hook you up because they know you. These guys at SoS are super, as in they have people from all over the world that ship their NSXs over to spend 15,000 on a freaking stroker kit??? plus all the labour that goes into getting that done.
When my rear diff blew up, I had it towed from deer valley all the way down to tempe, even though there were probably many reputable shops along the way that could have done the job.
Thumbs up for SoS! keep it up guys.
