I don't know any one personally that has a giles pump but have heard nothing but good from him. To bad I already rebuilt all of the ones on mine VW's. If I had to do it over again I would spend the extra money and time and have him do my pump.

What do you think. Do you think the claim of more HP with the performance pump and better mileage is realistic and can be done with good long term reliability?  I attached his letter. I am not calling him a liar or anything, but before I buy it I am hoping for some feedback.
