Casey!!! Amasing !!! please inform me if you do cooporate with someone in greece that can do this for me. In addition inform me if you can do this with a porsche service center here in Athens Greece. The only problem i do have is that i have now a center exhaust in my 997s so can it be one??

Have had a lot of emails asking questions about reliability and our history with adding forced induction...

I want to reiterate that no one has been adding FI to the M96 and M97 family of engines for longer than we have. We bought one of the first boxsters to be delivered to the states and threw a supercharger on it... Since the we have added FI to more porsches than likely, anyone else, including the Carrera 3.2/964/993/986/996/987 and 997 Porsche.

Dear Casey

I hope i did not make you angry when i mentioned the Evoms Supercharger.Besides it is clear that you have more projects than them at least according to your site! Still though i strongly believe that videos and certain comparisons of tuned cars would be a good idea since a lot of us do tend to look into a lot of proof before we decide to move on on a tuner! Apart from dyno results which are debatable most of the times clear comparion videos would be a brilliant idea as well as reviews of customers having tose set ups. Personally i really believe the work you do is extremely professional but it is a pity not having extended videos !! Keep up the good work and i am really interested in this turbo kit!! it seems amasing!!

Any educated consumer will take every option into account. Our goal is to build the best possible product for the money and deliver it in a timely fashion. I got your email btw and will respond to it shortly.

Stacy is mailing us his Gtech tester... Seems to be a good method for unbiased testing. We will allow the customer to use it but keep him in the speed limit. That is a big problem with testing in the winter... not many tracks are open at this point.

That answers some history, but says nothing about the reliability of the M96 and M97 engines after your FI is done to them. Does your company have real statistics for how much the wear rates are accelerated and what the typical failure modes are once that happens?
