TL, DR: Have a 986 with no key. I have the cars iPas data. Looking for help on how to use PIWIS II to reprogram key/lock cylinder with immobilizer and DME.

Before we get started I am aware of the ECU Dr's service and I know I can order a key from porsche. Because it will be a dedicated track car, I am trying to avoid purchasing a key, if possible. Also looking at an immobilizer emulator.

I am working on a 1997 Boxster bought from an auction. The boxster did not come with the key. However, I do have a key and lock cylinder that were "paired" together from a separate 986. I am not sure if that can be used/paired with the immo or not.

On to the PIWIS... I purchased and setup a PIWIS II with the hardware. With the software, I can "talk" to the car, read/clear trouble codes, activate circuits like the fuel pump or secondary air injections system, etc. I have read over the PIWIS II user manual and several forum posts on PIWIS II, but I cannot find any information on the process of pairing the ignition lock/immobilizer/DME with the PIWIS II.

I have found a few posts where people have offered to help by private message. So that has lead me to make a post seeking information. I am new to Porsche and its diagnostic tools, but I have been doing similar things with BMW INPA/ITSA and rom flashing tools.

Thanks!
