yrralis, the only difference between Paigow's car F77 and my X51 Powerkit is that it is proven that the X51 increases hp and torque, whereas the article in Excellence magazine about the F77 did not find any increases that were documentable and were left with Champion's explanation that the increases are at high speed and more of a seat of the pants effect. To me the F77 is not a comparable option to the X51, is not a Porsche factory option so it adds only value to a car as far as someone would do the same mod to a car they would buy, doesn't cost the same as X51 and doesn't add the same value when it is time to resell, at least in my eyes. IMOHO, of course since I am naturally biased towards what I own.
