I'm with hemonu
It would appear you may have slowed down the Boxster's 0-60 (37.28 MPH) times
But I bet it gets better gas mileage now
If it is 60mph, I'll feel comfortable now that I won't have to worry about my IMSB.
The engine won't last long enough
ECU_Doctor are you the right hand sock puppet and iroczporsche is the left hand sock puppet?
Let the burn continue

Actually, with the new smog machines in CA that don't "sniff", I was able to pass with an ECU mod in my 2007 BMW. That surprised me for sure...

I had smog two years ago and they still used a sniffer. Have to re smog this year so can you tell me what is involved please. Thanks!

I *think* it is 2006 and newer don't need a sniff. older still do. Call you smog station and find out if they have the new machine or not, not all have it...

Excluding the current 918 Spyder (2.5 secs.), there is only one car in Porsche's current line up with a 3 second 0-60 (actual is 2.9). It's the 991 Turbo S with 560 HP. They start at $183 before any options.

Post vids!! I'm a bit of a skeptic regards to seeing that large of a difference, but then again I'm sure there is still a gain to be made with this

If you can do this with the Boxster, then you should be able to do it with the other flat 6 motors.
Please put a post on the Rennlist.com 996 forum. I am sure there will be lots of people interested
996 Forum - Rennlist Discussion Forums

Dr. Paul aka ECU Wizard, aka ECU Doctor
Paul,
We are a decent bunch but totally intolerant of B/S attempts to get in our wallets.
Compared to the 996 guys on Rennlist -we are choir boys. So the suggestion to try your luck on Rennlist is both helpful and positive.
Some reference/link to your Camaro triumphs may help your credibility? Not disputing your claims but to just dump a blatant ad in our Forum with no prior posts to your credit indicates(incorrectly ?) blind bumptiousness.
So you've had plenty of free exposure - now it is time to put up or ....
Proof please .

With the ECU remapped on my Boxster I can acheive 0-60 times in 3-3.5 seconds, thats a lot better then the 6 second stock time.
I am just trying to pass on my amazing discoveries to you! My fellow Porsche fanatics, if I get enough interest in this we can set up a group deal and get you guys running 3 second 0-60s in no time.
Thank you my friends! And happy Motoring :dance: |
I also own a 2001 Box, and I am very interested in what you claim. So where are you at on offering some type of group deal? You can PM me if you'd like, maybe that will avoid some of the skeptic flames being blazed in here at you.

Let the Top Gear blokes have a go at it. I bet 'The Stig' could get that thing under 2 seconds.
