Default Need a tune! Who to go with?

So the motor is in and running have 200 miles on her already!
I wanted to have gladial tune it but no word on when he is coming back around.
Is there anyone else you guys would trust for tuning?
I just dont want to wait around for a couple months not knowing when i can get tuned. No boost and shifting at 3k sucks

I'm obviously biased but Doug will be back at S&R in August

I had never used him before, but Doug Wilks (Top Speed) tuned my car last week and brought it up from 467whp to 530whp. Haven't picked the car up yet as its having some more work done to it, so I can't attest to drivability, but 63whp is a pretty good resume, wouldn't you say?

Doug has tuned over 1500 Subarus, he should be down at S&R on almost a monthly basis. The guys down there can vouch for him, I'm sure a few more people will chime in.

Having been tuned countless times by many different tuners over the years using different ecus, here's how they stack up (IMHO):

Gadiel (most recent; tuned my AEM)
Scott Siegal (last year; tuned my EcuTeK)
Alpha (earlier this year; tuned my AEM)
Doug @ TopSpeed (5 years ago; tuned my EcuTek)
Mark @ TurboTrix (3 years ago; tuned my EcuTek)
Bill @ Mastro (6 years ago; installed and tuned my EcuTek)

Gadiel has tuned many 9 sec quarter mile subarus in Puerto Rico and has been doing it for a long time.
