Seal Grey Matte is a splendid one to behold

Crazy unless I just had a set installed less than 2k miles ago...

I know, I know, back then I didn't know I was going to get addicted like you freaks and rip out the turbos.

I am not the type to judge any person/product by forum chat until I have tried it myself.

Unless its like Markski giving knowlege/info on his experience or something like that, i def pay attention then.

+1, Eddie is very good at what he does, making water cooled turbos **** on their pants that is, cheers!!

Yeah but its a lot easier to do the air cooled TTs... and tune them for that matter... if it was that easy it would not take him 7 years after the production of the first 996tt to start tuning it...
With that said I think his own cars are a labor of love and I like what I see.

Not sure if KMD Tuning is good with Porsches, but they are pretty reputable in the Audi world. And when I was there last weekend, I saw a 996tt with its engine pulled out. I would give Danny a call to find out how much he charges.
Also check out Protosport?
