37 year owner of air cooled 911s considering a 996 as a daily. Anybody have a good source for a PPI in San Jose?

Thanks!

Problem is that you can PPI a 996 today and tomorrow it will grenade...there is no telling when it'll blow, but I can tell you that a 996 always runs the best it's ever run right before she blows...

Rubbish. When RMG ppi'd a 986 for me the first thing they did was remove and cut open the oil filter. It was full of metal. They called me, and did no more inspection because it was an IMS time bomb.

These things aren't a mystery. There are ways to actually inspect the condition of an engine.
