its his tuning company called PPO2. it is named after a term in his profession. PPO2 = partial pressure oxygen.

You don't like my shift knob ??? LOL

Actually it really is a great performning knob - I had them custom counterweighted when I had them made.... but the white retro muscle car look does turn some people off.

Some shift knobs look good, but don't perform well... and others don't look good, but perform very well. heh
I was hoping you were going to say it was functional and better performing.

What is the thread size? Mine have a few different shaft set-ups... but they aren't for sale - you have to earn one... LOL
