There's nothing wrong with a Walmart mentality. ...

Its the responsibility of a business is to communicate the value of the product and the company behind it to the customer so they understand what they are buying and who they are buying it from.

... Or trying to save a buck.
What tics me off is saying that buying off the rack pieces from Suncoast is going to get you the same results.
It's not even close.
You may even lose power if thats all you do.

I've dealt with Pedro for years. His products are first rate and he certainly stands behind what he sells. Is he cheap? no. Is he reasonable? certainly.
You can probably get the individual parts that Pedro is selling in his kit from several sources, but I suspect you'd end up paying more in total. Besides, I'd personally MUCH rather support the small businessman who sells what i want than the Walmarts out there. Sometimes you have no choice, but given one, I choose to go with the small guy. Maybe I'm prejudiced since I'm a small business owner myself, but really...wouldn't you rather deal with the owner, for any number of reasons, than some sales flunky who doesn't have the power to tweek your order to fit your needs??
And Pedro...the wheels are rolling to get the power kit ordered. I've GOT to get something before next track season! lol.
Thanks for all you've done for us Pedro. A lot of us are very appreciative.
Bob

wow, I actually thought that Pedro's packages were very reasonably priced, I am planning on ordering one with my tax return, which takes me to the other question, do you have a approximate net gain of the techno power2 kit on a 3.2 with just a cat back?

... a very nice bump in both torque and HP on a 3.2.
One of the first TechnoPower2s installed went on a 2001 S and he got 30 extra horses and 20 extra ft lb of torque.
This particular car doesn't yet have headers or catback although we programmed the ECU for it since they will be installed shortly by the owner.
Happy Boxstering,
Pedro

I haven't read any other threads about your package. But, you know you can give away ice cream and get complaints from people. You, and everyone else, will never please all. There are people who believe that merchant's should provide their parts, service, and knowledge for free. That's why they change their own oil and do many other repairs themselves, they want it done for free. Not me. I pay for services I get and expect high-quality services for the dollars paid. Keep doing what you're doing, for those who appreciated it, and disregard the rest. Then, hoist a Scotch knowing you did all you could do to make their experience a quality one. Cheers.
