PPI Recommendation: Upstate South Carolina
I searched but, could only find recommendations for Columbia and Charleston area. May go check out a potential candidate tomorrow. Though, there's 100% chance of rain and I'm not a fan of trying to buy a car in the rain... Much less, driving three hours in the rain and back. My schedule is killing me right now!
So, whether this pans out or not, I figured the info will help someone at some point!

Autometrics in Charleston, if they don't do PPIs they may be able to recommend someone.
Edit: I read it wrong, sorry.

No worries. Wish I could take it to them. They seem to have a great reputation. There's no way the owner will let me take a three hour ride to get it inspected!

I'm in Seneca and use Bill & Frank Gerwig at ProTech Motorsports in Greer for things I can't do myself, which isn't much. They've done some work on my 928 and did the alignment and corner balance of my silver 997.
I'm not really a fan of the dealership in Greenville, but the service manager is Scott Feinglas if you need to go that direction. Neil is one of the better Techs there.
Where are you and the car located?

Thank you for the recommendation. I had already left them a message when I saw yours. This is a wonderful group of people. Super easy to work with and very reasonable. Bill was an absolute pleasure. He never rushed and answered my questions in detail every time. It was as if he was a long lost best friend trying to patiently make sure I got the info I needed to make a sound decision.
The only issue I had was actually getting there. Waze showed the correct address but, took me to the wrong location, their original location. TWICE. It was weird. I switched to Google Maps and a had a fun back road drive across Greer, SC to their new location off of River Road, not State Park Rd... Though, I was 30 minutes late, they never skipped a beat. I enjoyed every minute there.
Highly recommended. When I do find a car, it may just be worth the 2 1/2 drive to let them do any necessary maintenance I can't do.
