Just two: 1) They were at PIR last year and their turbo 4kq was fast!  2)
They sold a set of five, yes 5 fuchs for $400 a couple of days before I
called them! :(

I think the 4kqt at PIR last year was their first.  But for $4000, be sure
they include the TQC brake upgrade at all four corners.  You can still buy
TQC's for around $5k (if you beat the bushes really hard), so $4k seems very
steep to me.
