Wow, this looks amazing. I have the factory tool that I inherited from my father after he sold his 928. It would be awesome to have both. Well done, Tom!

Beautifully done, and another HUGE THANK YOU for supporting the 944 (and other transaxle models) community.

Ferrari used the Staeger tensioner too at some point, though "of course" with different units... It could be interesting to overlap with some Ferrari folks who have the tool? (Things got simpler down the line as the tension was quoted in Hz in the factory manuals, which can be easily set with the free Gates Carbon drive app on a smartphone).

I definitely want one!
I hope it will be affordable
Will there be some kind of warranty on it?
