It’d be nice to know the two shops you were unhappy with so no one goes to them blindly.
Don’t really want to stir anything up but it’d be good to know

It is a beast, best car I have owned. It still needs an O2 sensor to fix the last issue of a small flat spot at 4K under half throttle but other than that I feel like I have the perfect little backdate for me. (As soon as I Classic Retrofit Air)

If it was a cut and dry scenario where I thought that the shops were 100% at fault or criminals, if it were I would shout it from the rooftops. This was more a case of several factors intersecting to create a poor outcome and I know for a fact that I was to blame for some of the issues because I didn't set proper expectations of trust my gut. **** talking these guys isn't fair because I think that other people may have better experiences with them than I did. Again, not scum bags, just not the best businessmen.

On the other hand, Dan Jacobs and John Behe are the two guys who deserve all the credit for getting this back on track. I cannot recommend these two guys enough.
