Awesome motorsport content

Having been a follower of High Performance Academy for sometime and purchaser of more than a couple of courses, maybe 10 plus…. the Podcasts have reiterated the learning from the online courses, the quality of guests and depth of information provided is next level. My interest has long been in the NA plus T Barra powered Falcon and after Roland from PCM Tech’s The Gap Between Reflashing and Standalone Podcast can attest to have listened to quite a few more. Thanks Andre and team keep up the awesome work

Great informative and RELEVANT

Great podcast to listen to if you want to understand more if what goes on inside the world of tuning engine building and so on. Hey Andre if you see this i have a question, are you guys looking into doing a video release of the pod cast at all? It would be awesome to have some visual as-well. And also you guys should sell some hpa stickers! Legendary pod cast, legendary crew!

You Don't Have To Pay Me Cuz

Great podcast, you don't even have to pay me to listen to it. Could listen for hours to these guests.
My question, when are ITB's 'worth it' compared to just turbocharging a car instead in your opinion Andre?
PS: Can I have a free t-shirt? I promise I won't wear it if I end up on COPS or Police 10-7.
