This weekend at a silent auction and wondering if they are good . I know the forum likes epl and others but I can probably get the apr one for under 1k when it normally costs 2k. . Opinions welcome.

I havent tried it on a pcar, I've had it on my Audi, awesome product and cheap..
I like how you can switch maps using the cruise control lever..

I have absolutely no experience with the company, but if it matters, a VERY close friend had a stage 3 APR kit on his Audi and was terribly disappointed with every aspect of his dealings with them.

I had an APR tune on my A6 2.7t and on a Audi TT. Was a nice tune. Have no idea about their Porsche experience. I would personally not use them for anything but audi/vw.

Muker, did you get your tune? I've got a friend who can't stop raving about APL tuning, but hardly anyone on this forum talks about them. Who did you go with?

I have an APR on my GTI and love it. Even though you have decided not to do it I think they make a good "product"

Sounds like APR is relatively new to Porsche tuning though they are a big company. I have heard that they are big in the VW and Audi tuning universe...any other experience or comments with APR tuning on Porsche would be appreciated.
