You just need to update the map in the DME with a PST2 or PIWIS like thstone and PAUL mentioned. It’s really easy. I have done this over a dozen times with 996 3.4 swap into a 986, ROW map upgrade, and S motor into a base car like you are doing. Just get the programming codes from your dealer and find someone with a PST2 or PIWIS. Only takes 2 minutes to enter the DME programming code and pick the the right map and 7-8 minutes to update the DME with the map. 10 mins total time to do the map update.
