umm ... so what was porsche thinking when they put it on the 550 and added 8 hp? the 550 is basically your engine with the 987 airbox / maf housing and a factory tune.

no gain? not likely. most likely no gain for softronic. you've been upsold. instead of 1/2 hour at your indy getting the spyder tune pushed onto your car, now you're out $800 to ... softronic.
