With a name like "Guru racing", seems like your tag line should be:

[quote]Your partner in your quest for Porsche nirvana<hr></blockquote>

Or some kind of B/S like that.

Cool Logo! Would make a great T shirt, sticker etc. My day job is director of marketing, so any marketing and sales advice needed, feel free to email me direct. I would only ask for a free t-shirt

Superjet, those numbers you posted are with the Link system added to your current mods, or before the Link?

Were the charts showing the results? A sample of one is and not reverent. It has no average and doesn't have enough samples to form a base. ...and we have not even seen the sample of one.

I would to see real data to supporting the claims.

I dont mean to be a thorn in anyones side but we are also releasing a map sensor conversion for the 944 turbo. Actually, most of the companies that deal with the 944s will be releasing some sort of map conversion very soon. I am sure there is going ot be a flood of these systems on the market and the mass-flow system will become obsolete very quickly. There are quite a few of these map systems available from different companies at this time we are not exactly sure which one we are going with yet. We have a couple systems here that we have been testing. I will say that the link system does appear to be attractive. However, we were not the company that has the exclusivity rights with link for the 944 turbo. The one thing you can expect from our system is a complete package with chips, intake piping, controller, etc......I am sure most companies will be offering something along these lines. Anyways, there wil be more details on our website in the next week or so.

I forgot to mention that we will probably be using the map conversion for our supercharger systems too.

TurboTim:

I sent you an email a few weeks back regarding performance enhancements for a 951. Haven't heard anything back. I really doubt that people want to deal with a company who does not even reply to a request.

If I may add my .02 here, TurboTim is busy and I'm sure you weren't getting the brush. He was a great guy to deal with and I'm quite happy with my order\experience at SFR. If you need a response quickly, I've always been able to get one by calling.

Christian,


I reply to every email we recieve.Alot of times when I send out the replies they come back to me as undeliverable. When that happens.......there is nothing I can do except wait for another email from the person or a phone call. Take care.

Tim:

My outlook express shows the following mail in the sent items box:

Hello:

I picked up your name on the rennlist forum. I intend to buy a 1986 944 turbo with 112,000 miles, good condition, well maintained, stock. I would like more power for the engine and spend about 3,5 to 5 K US. What would you recommend me to do. The car will be driven only on the street, no track use. I saw from your web page that you don't offer chip tuning. What shall I do here?

Thank you and best regards,

Christian


end

sent to tim@speedforceracing.com on July 2nd from my main email kienle@shaw.ca.

Best regards,
Christian


In the meantime I am concentrating on an 86 with less mileage, pristine condition, probably the best for me as I am quite picky. I already bought a LBE and Steve R. chips as I am also impatient and hungry for power. I like the stuff which Danno will offer as well as it is concentrating a lot on torque improvement. This is what those cars need.

Christian: I have Emailed and talked to Tim on many occasions and I can assure you he will respond to requests. I had an order that took a long time to complete (supplier problems) and I was always able to contact him. Try calling him close to his closing time.

Like beab I've always recieved timely updates from Turbo Tim concerning delays and such, and sometimes without me even inquiring.
Excellent "personal" service and exceptional quality products, everytime.....
