Ed, the benefit was that an indy could maybe flash ina 3.4 map for half an hours labour.....much less than £350

Fred. I havent done the work t the car yet so it is all hypothetical, but real knowledge nonetheless.

When fitting the 987 MAF housing along with the other simple intake mods (996/7 throttle body) , and a freer flowing exhust manifold and silencer, the standard map will be make the car run lean...but the 996 3.4 map should rectify that.

Have noted that the 986 and 996 have the same injectors and fuel pressure regulator.
I wouldnt want to rev the standard rods to 9k to be honest! and indeed the main bearings also.

Thanks fo rthe input on Viezu , but I have experience with one Wayne Schofield who is a bit of a Porsche wizz in these parts so I wuold use him for ECU tune.

PS I always use the top dollar fuel!
