Sharkster, as for the PSI divorce, I will not comment on behalf of Neil (might put my foot in it) but I spoke with a really sound bloke a few months ago (can you remember the PSI race car that I posted at track day? It was his!) and some of his comments regarding certain company issues were very strong, don't get me wrong! he said the PSI tuning product was top notch! I just got the feelin' he wanted to spit some gossip out but couldn't! Maybe PM Neil, he might fill you in!

PSI treated Neil like a "red headed step child".
They made him prepay for everything, were slow to get him
things (like product or info). Hell it took PSI (not Neil) 2-3 months for
me to get exhaust tips and Neil ended up buying them from Stef at Europipe
instead just to keep me from going insane. PSI wanted to penetrate the
US market but did not want to "Help" their US distributor to do it.
How the hell can you sell Programming for $1000 more than the industry
standard (EVOMS/Giac)? or how many $5000 exhuast systems can you sell?
How many (as a distributor) exhuast systems would you want to inventory?
This is why Sharkey is so Successful in my opinion:
He stands behind his word and EVOMS fully supports him!
Thusly great manufacturer/distributor relationship and Surprise...
HAPPY CUSTOMERS !!!!!!!!
I hope my rambling makes sense, and I am risking saying what Neil doesnt
want to say but that is the readers digest version. Throw some $$$$$ in
the mix and some emotions and you get the pic..."Divorce"

Unfortunately, some European companies want the U.S. market (ex.: PSI), but do
not want to give what it takes to make the inroads necessary...
Good Luck Neil and share what you can, when you can.

I know that all too well. Lets just say ... Neil did what he could. He had a " gun with no bullets " .

Don't worry about Neil, he's doing just fine. In fact, I had to wait for my JIC installation as he was backed up with Turbo's, GT3's, etc. Service is superior as usual.

Also thanks for the kind words- Todd/Mike @ EVO are super-supportive of us and visa versa. You're right we do believe in each other so that really does help. I never have to worry about things not showing up etc...

Relatively new to all of this so I can't comment on the history and can only base my opinion on my own experience. All I have to say is that Neil is a great guy and delivered all that he promised and more. Would recommend him to all without hesitation.
