I watched Rob put alot of time into tuning an STS'd Blue Trans AM at Irwindale. He also managed to work on a few issues I was having for free. I had never delt with Haddad, George, or Charlie but Rob has been nothing but helpful at the track 
As far as FI cars both I have seen proven results with Strickly 800+ on a dynapack and 9's is quite exceptional with a D1SC and a 3700lb car.
Best of luck to you.

Funny how those cars never run those numbers when we are at the track. I have never tried to be the fastest car out there. I seem to have always been asked for space from any car you brought out in the past. Space from a 4k pound car. I also cut 1.4 60's with half the power your car was putting out. As for magazine articles. Morgan had plenty of those and we all know how that turned out.
Dude you need to shut the **** UP

Well I happened to be at those races with my 95 blazer with LS1 and Mike and George did all my tuning on my truck and I did pretty well when I was there. Oh and my car was mostly built in my driveway by me with alot of assistance from Haddad and his staff (and LS1TECH!). They have always been really helpfull and they put as much time and effort into customer cars as they do there own cars (which is to me is most important). And BTW Mike was in his friends dark green stock LT1 camaro that night, that has had absolutely no work done at Haddad's shop. Also to add a little insight into the original post I happened to be at the shop recently and saw Mike and George tuning a PTK turbo LS1 camaro that was puting down 550RWHP. I thought it was pretty impressive. No experience with strictly though....sorry. Oh and I included a picture of little something my truck picked up at the Desert Nats and where it now resides in appreciation.

You dont see very many enthusiast's let alone shop owners come out to where it all goes down. And BigDeez's Blazer handed every car there its ***. I might include most of those cars had heads/cams and nitrous (cept the ballzdeep guys, something was broke..) Sprung Monkey and Travie can vouche for any of this, as this was the night the 383 took a small break.
This is starting to become a damn soap opera... its clear where people stand, who friends are, so why even bother with this anymore? It's ok to do your homework on a shop, but even worse when everyone has to talk bad about everyone. Lets just let this be.
Flash for president WOOOOOOOOOO!
