Engine Builders in MI

Hey guys, looking for a good engine builder in or around MI, that have worked on FA motors or even EJs. Most of the builders worth a damn in MI specialize in the Big 3, and don't really know a lot about our engine.

If you can't find anyone in MI, come across the lake to IL and visit P&L. Subies are their bread and butter.

BCP or Boost Controlled Performance is the go to subaru shop in michigan. I personally have never gone but I know tons of people who swear by them. Another that people seem to like is Horse Power Techs but I have heard a decent amount of bad reviews from friends so I would stay away from them.

+1 for P&L; there is literally no shop better or with more experience in the area.

Has anyone worked with Strictly Performace? The reason i asked I've been doing some research and they look like a shop that does some specific work on FA20 motors and not just EJs.
