As I said before, wasn't sure what tuning they were using. Thank you for the concerns and diligence in researching tuners.

Ill Send you a pm. Mostly they do BMWs but I volunteered my car to be first BRZ they are working on. I figured since I bought a new car I don't mind if they use mine as a tester

heard a clunk going over bumps. After wiggling the driver front wheel side to side and hearing it again, I found the tie-rod locking nut was loose. The alignment guy must have not tightened it down enough and got knocked loose hitting a pothole or something. Everything is good once again.

Got a tire repaired (ran over a screw).

Installed a Tap Turn flasher module (with "wig-wag" hazard mode)
