The key is you get the factory warranty and a product that Porsche will stand behind. Alot of the people doing chips never even dyno the car, they just jack with the fuel curve and you drive at your own risk. There are some good companies like GIAC doing quality products that do the research. I think the X50 is a better platform to start with the GT2 turbos, intercoolers, strengthened gearbox and freer flowing exhaust. You can always chip it from there to get more. At some point you ask yourself how much is enough... After just returning from Porsche Driving Experience with N/A Carrera 2's on a race track that is one hell of a fast car. I couldn't imagine what my turbo X50 would do.

I have an '03 X50 and remember that the X50 option came out as a special news release mid 2002 that you could order on '02 builds as the X50 powerkit. The '03 order guide included the X50 option. I have a friend with the '02 X50 and it is the same car as mine. Both are cars have been flawless.
