Obviously it reflects that... the poll was done... everyone knows the community is biased due to a few individuals whom are no longer on this site. I strongly believe a new poll will yield different results.

1 year warranty providing a used motor, not very exciting for guys with brand new motors going FI.

And Mike D sending PM to members who speak of going to AAM, yes I do call that biased.

Everyone = ?

Not to be an @ss here Bryce. But you're pretty much calling all Mid-A Z/G owners biased here cuz we had a good experience with a certain shop. Think deep again Bryce. Most of us had NOT gotten discount on services from these shops but yet we still vouch for them. It was purely based on our experiences. Calling everyone biased is a bit unfair here. A poll is meant for everyone to vote. It's like Obama got selected as our president and now you're calling that a biased decision?!?!?! Then what's the point of having a poll?

Agreed.. So, really, why isn't this a sticky anymore? Is it not a valuable tool for newbie's in the forced induction or overall general tuning Z/G World to use to make good sound choices?

Perhaps members that live in Northern Maryland close to Baltimore would find that Hill's garage is a good choice for them. Perhaps, newb's in DC would find that Function:Tuned would be the logical choice for them. Or perhaps they would see AAM as the place to go. This is the whole basis of a Forum Community: People's Choice.

If opinions are no longer welcome then why even pay for a membership to be apart of this community any longer?

Kinda says something about the shop that will warranty a used motor even though he has no clue what the motor has been thru, it means he stands by his work. I didn't look into it and not sure if AAM has a warranty on their block that they make with their $32,540,000 machine?

not to be an a$$ but are you avoiding the fact of Mike D sending messages to various members about AAM?

All i'm saying is the results would be different with new poll, I know members who are switching to AAM from F:T now with Jeremy there. Guess that proves my point a little.

I know members who are switching back to F:T, I can come up with any claim or random statistic too, you are forgetting the numbers speak for themselves I am not a band wagon nut rider, I went to AAM first even after I already knew about F:T I ignored the good luck comments or don't say I didn't tell ya so comments, went there looked really solid cool people than I happened to get the bad end I was warned about, they got new management that is freakin awesome but the past is the past, what happened......happened. I then went to F:T and Dave bent over backwards for me. F:T will always have my vote.

FTR: Mike D did not warn me about AAM before I went there, I did speak to him and Brent before I went there and neither of them said anything to me about them.

So Bryce if person A gets a PM from Mike D saying, "Don't go to AAM" and end up going to Function:Tuned and had a great experience, his vote to this poll should be viewed as biased? Hmmm... So what about the actual great experience? Again I'm not bashing on any shop. But I do believe if props were given to a specific shop, it should stay that way and not be questioned by anyone especially not be called "biased".

I think the Mid A is fortunate to have a number of options in the FI buliding dept. Hopefully it makes all the shops care about the build a little more.
