ECU Tuning on a 986

I've got the software that you've referenced, the reflash from Softronic. It's a good product, but it works best if you have completed other modifications such as exhaust and intake work. A significant piece of it's success comes from advancing the timing.
On my car, I've got the larger throttle body, a cone air filter mounted outside of the engine compartment, headers, 100 cell cats, a Borla muffler, lightweight flywheel, and underdrive pulley. On the dyno, the car showed 244 RWHP, which is about 290 at the flywheel. Gains are across the board. Fuel economy improved as well.

Hi
Can you link me to the parts that you got to mod your engine, I have a boxster 1997 and I don't think that the reflash is possible? I have called a few places here in the UK and some say it is and others say it can not be done due to the age of the car (but I know it can be done).

Will the parts you fitted in yours fit mine as I have the 2.5L engine if so could you provide the part numbers or where to purchase the following, (I have looked on ebay but I dont know if their the correct parts as they all claim to be performance)..

throttle body
air cone filter
headers,
100 cell cats,
Borla muffler,
lightweight flywheel,
underdrive pulley
