Default Frank Hill is awesome!!!!! Like u didnt know:)

I dont know why I am even writing this because anyone in the Mid A already knows what type of person Frank Hill is! Alot of people on here dont know me but to tell you about my car I am very **** about everything, I mean everything related to my car. I got lucky enough 3 yrs ago to have Frank do my TT install aswell as other upgrades at AAM. His work then was and still is flawless! Last year I made a mistake by having another shop do work to my car (only due to not wanting to go all the way to Balt). The work was less than adequate. (I wont bash the shop but will never go there for anything again) Over the winter I bought a couple goodies to have installed when I finally got the car out of storage. Unfurtunatly when I got it out on April 3rd my check engine light came on on the way to Hills Garage. The car ran fine so no thought was really given. I had Frank do the goodie install (Nismo suspension, Nismo sways, Nismo finned cover, and Cusco type RS lsd) and then check the cel. He found it to be a corroded plug in my ecu!!! I ordered a new one and subsiquintly had to have him retune my car with a UpRev. Just wanted to go a different route from the Utec.

Tuned today:
I decided to not drive the hour and a half to his shop to observe and ultimately be in the way. Even though he told me to come down. As anyone who has had a tune knows this is very nerve racking. He called me around 3pm just as courtesy for updates. Then at 9pm he calls me with a the AWESOME news. He tuned my car to the different settings as I asked him to. He told me that my car hit 500whp but was not seen as safe. So he backed it back down to a very safe 417hp 370ftlbs at a easily driveable setting and then a 470whp setting for when I feel the need. He told me that this car feels like it came from the factory as a FI car. Big words from a man like Frank (He doesnt BS!!!!).

Words cannot say what type of person Frank is. The biggest thing for me is a mans word. I shake a mans hand and am very upfront and honest. Its respect, you give it and you will get it back!! His word is written in stone. His mechanical skills are second to none. He is so friendly and doesnt mind answering questions. WHAT ELSE COULD A PERSON ASK FOR! So from a very happy customer in WV, thank you Frank. You will be the only person to ever touch my car again.

^Ha ha, I know.

How do you like your JWT flywheel and clutch kit? Does the pedal feel like mine or more like your stock setup?

Thanks for the compliments guys. I try to baby this car way to much. I like it being nice, is that such a crime. Anyways I am so excited because I am going down in the morning to pick it up. Suzanne emailed me the dyno sheets, the 470 hp is a nice steady climb all the way to 7000rpms and hit 402fts. She couldnt find the 500 hp dyno sheet but said she will have it for me tomorrow. I want to see the turque numbers with that one

Not that Frank needs any intro but to anyone who wants quality work by a honest and very knowledgeable tech at a very reasonable price. He is the only choice! (FOR ME)
