Garnet Squadron is almost all Bosch (tends to happen when you're sponsored...), and their tools have worked great for us. We do have one older corded drill, which is a great thing to have for long drilling sessions and as a safety margin.
A few teams use air-powered tools, especially riveters, but your air capacity in the pit areas (8'x8' to 10'x10') at competitions will be limited by your compressor.
