Where does Tyrol Come From?
The first question a lot of people ask is "What the heck is TyrolSport"? Well, first off, let's start by pronouncing it correctly. It's TEE-ROLL Sport, not TIE-ROLL Sport. Now what on earth is Tyrol?
For starters lets look at a map of Europe: The Tyrol is a region which encompasses Southern Austria and Northern Italy. This region is famous for its Alpine beauty, fine wines, and amazing roads(Think Passo Stelvio).The region has produced some of Europes finest F1, Rally, and Sports Car drivers. The people of this region, located between Germany and Italy, combine Teutonic engineering excellence with the Italian Passione for all things automotive. These are the qualities that TyrolSport exemplifies.
Our History
Our founder Michael Pancheri started TyrolSport by himself in a garage located behind his house, in Sept of 2001. Word of mouth quickly spread that he was the go-to “shop” in the NYC tri-state. In 2004, the first product was launched, the revolutionary brake caliper stiffening kit, followed shortly thereafter by a successful line of intercoolers. The company has continually grown since then into a full-fledged automotive service, engineering, and product marketing company.
Our Staff
