You talking generalities or you speaking from experience with Evolution Dynamics specifically?

I'm almost positive that my main issue with the low compression is due to valves but with going through a couple water pumps recently, it will be interesting to find out if I had a bad gasket also.

Personal experience with several shops in Houston. I have not dealt with Evolution Dynamics in the DFW area. I've only heard of one issue with them from a local Pikes Peaks racer and if i'm not mistaken its about his rollbar taking too long to get worked on and they had to pull out from there

I've spoken with Kevin and he's a great guy, just needed some general advice and he happily gave it over the phone.

My friend in dallas when he owned his Evo had Evo dynamics do some work and they did a great job.
