Best air cooled Porsche shop in all of San Diego. Mark, Alex, and Steve are experts in their craft. They work fast and are very fairly priced, unlike other shops. A+

I was experiencing the notorious EGR/VVT monitors not ready code when trying to smog my 991 C4 GTS. I brought the car to Performance Independent Porsche and Alex had the monitors ready to go in less than 30 minutes. They charged me a fraction of dealership costs. Highly recommend this shop.
