Good to see Alex and James getting some additional well deserved credit! I bought my first GT2 mods from Alex....and besides having excellent taste in wheels, he spent a lot of time getting me up to speed on what and what not to do. I'm also a Sharkwerks customer for life!

With the exchange rate, you don't have to work your butt off these day.

I just picked my car from Alex and James (thanks again for the hard work) a couple of hours ago; there are so much to learn about P-cars. The GT660 kit they put together for me is a monster. I'm actually afraid to floor it. It will be a learning process for me.

Alex, I love those PSS10s with H&R Swaybars. The car is much drivable at low and high speed.

Excellence in service is an understatement for Alex and James. These guys really go out of their way to help ALL their customers. I regret not being able to get a p-car and meeting these guys sooner.

Alex/James - you guys rock and it's always glad to read/see/hear about another satisfied Sharkwerks customer.

PS - yeah, yeah, yeah my car is almost done... shop has been busy getting the kit done but 2 more heart wrenching weeks and I shall stop by with a new look after premier - you guys will be one of the first to see it

Danke, Danke! Your car is going to be quite different to the GT3, TechArt 997S' around these parts. Can't wait! Sam will protect her nicely too

I haven't even met Sharky yet, but he has spent much time sending and replying to emails of mine discussing and providing guidance on the car I eventually bought this week.

That kind of attention is not typical. Thanks Shark.

hey no worries at all... People have always been really open/helpful with me on these cars. I've always enjoyed answering techie stuff which goes back to getting 400plus Emails per day when I used to run my old gig (www.sharkyextreme.com) And whatever/however/wherever you end up if I've helped in some way then great.

Alex I received the new DV`s and installed them. NO ISSUES. You did mention that I did not purchase them from you, and that makes your help even more amazing. But you did not have to shame me on a public forum like this. LOL! Anyway I did throw a code P0234, having to do with the boost frequency valve and pressure lines to the wastegates. I tested the hoses that go behind the motor and I am loosing 5psi in 30 seconds, so I am going to replace these lines. Sharkster have you ever experienced this? BTW I am disconnecting from the wastegate and frequency valve to test and It looks like that plastic tee in the back is the culprit. thanks Mike

hey mike good to hear and know I just meant since you're local and we do EVO we'd gladly help (so if anyone got on your case we'll ban them lol!). I'll check with James when he gets in but it's certainly not a common one... I know the tee your talking about. The plastic doesn't split but the line does and bleeds?

PS Zip ties are your friend. We have them all over every darned hose on my motor!
