I agree, it is hard to surpass the knowledge as well as the experience that Todd Knighton has developed over the years. He comes from a long line of geniuses indeed his father was a Scientist involved in saving Apollo 13. How many people can say that about their fathers. Personally, he has always treated me with respect and has always provided a product that exceeds my expectations. I HAVE NEVER been disappointed by his tuning or his products.
Congrats
Robert

I have only talked to Todd a few times and he has always been very friendly and open to my questions. No arrogance or pushy sales involved at all, just the answers to the questions. I have read a few old post here in threads from people who had to be referring to him when they talked of “ Hillbilly “ tuners. That is disappointing but not unexpected from people trying to get to the top of the tuning world where Todd lives. Todd isn’t the only great tuner/fabricator of Porsche performance products but he is 1 of the Best as far as I am concerned.<O</O
Markski and Neil have both been very friendly and open to questions from me. They both haven’t been pushy nor have they suggested they are better then any other. They explain what and why they do things and it allows me to choose what I want and believe to be the best fit for my situation. <O</O
I would suggest not only looking at price but how the products are made. What kind of customer service do the companies you are buying from have? How much time do they spend w/ you before you are a paying customer? Do they answer questions and give you information so you can figure out what is best for you at the budget you are at? <O</O
I find there is a bigger picture to getting these performance product then just price. But that is just me.

question isn't so much how much boost can you run, but how long you can run it for.
