My car has the SpeedArt cat back, the great IPD race plennum with the bigger TB and was considering getting headers, but was wondering which of the above mentioned tools would work best for me, unfortunaley my weak point are the computer related programs, therefore easy of use would be a plus for me.
Also, was wondering if these tools have the capability to reflash the ECU or that is anothr different process, and wanted to know if this is a good idea or not based on the mods I already have on the car, as always cash flow seems to be the restrain, therefore the 'best bang for the buck' applies here... lol.

Gilles, I believe the Durametric is required if you will have a 986 for longer than a couple years so you can read trouble codes & know what is causing the CEL when it comes on, it won't reflash the DME, the Softtronic does & includes the Durametric software too. Power improvements are never cheap for Porsches so any "improvements" are debatable as to whether or not they are worth the cost. I can check your car for trouble codes if that's all you want to do & I'm in CostaMesa. PM me if you want.
