I found one in SONS system to try out but did not find it that much more profitable for me than my normal trade routes, about 150k profit for 120 tones.

If you want to find your own go to Galaxy map filter the view for high tech. Click on high tech system and see if the export the enhancers. The click into the system view, click on the station, if the status is "boom" then you found one.

Try Tenche (Blaauw Hub).

Sells Performance Enhancers for 6,136 cr/t.
Profit is 1,409 cr/t (luxuries seekers always pay 7,545 cr/t)

Distance is about 10 Mm from the station.

i suggest Tenche too.
there are 2 stations selling Performance Enhancers:

- Blaauw Hub, with 1 selling spot (i don't suggest this because it's often without T-9)
- Korolyov Orbital, with 3 selling spot [10/12Mm]

There are two reasons the T9's vanish or don't show up:

If you jump to a location while in Mobius and they are just not there, it's because of a desync error which happens in group games. If you log out and go to solo, they should be there. Since this is a multiplayer issue, as more people go to Korolyov, it will start happening there as well.

If you jump in, see them, and they vanish after a second, it's because they're moving locations. They travel around the planet - staying at one location for a while, then spending a period of time moving. If you look at the Seeking Luxuries waypoint when they've vanished, you'll see their distance quickly increasing. The only way around this is to wait until they stop moving (they usually travel for 20 to 30 mins).

Yeah, I think Lunney is better than Tenche, due to the 3 spots:

- It's unlikely that all 3 will be behind the planet at the same time
- If you're doing the run in group games, if traders don't show up due to the desync bug, you can quickly go to another luxuries site

Also faction in Lunney have low reputation so boosting other faction might help avert civil war.
Aaaaand it's gone.
