Good rotary mechanic PHX area?

Hi guys, my FD finally got here after month of waiting.
I want to get the car checked and get some engine work done, any recommendations for a good shop or person to take the car to?

I haven't dealt with them directly yet.
but UMS Tuning in Mesa has been recommended to me by 2 people.
I will likely be taking my car there in late spring to tune my new setup.
as far as a rotary repair shop, I'm not sure.

This was my PM reply to Purplehazee more than 2 weeks ago.......

"My go-to mechanic in the Valley used to be Mike Ploof at Berge Mazda/Volkswagen in Mesa. However, dealerships are pricey and very inconsistent. If you're at all mechanically inclined, I'd encourage you to get a good factory service manual and look at performing a majority of the light mechanical work yourself. Tuningwise, Tony at UMS tuning in Mesa is very good with FDs and the Power FC computer."
