ECU Flash Tune...

[bcrdukes]

I have the following bolt-on modifications:

1. IPD plenum and the 74mm throttle body upgrade
2. FVD "Sound" exhaust
3. BMC air filter (it was part of the FVD tuning package)
4. To be installed in a few weeks - FVD long tube headers

I cannot speak for the other vendors of flash software but for FVD, you can get a tune based on your bolt-ons. I do not believe they offer an ECU flash for cars without the bolt-ons, but I could be wrong. I wished there was a simple option for the 986 Boxster where Cobb offered pre-loaded flashes on the device itself without having to upload/download software or flashes etc. But c'est la vie. It's worked well for me and enjoying it.

Get the Cayman S regardless of clutch or IMS. I heard they are better than an ECU flash.

Thanks for the info. Yeah cobb is so easy to upload and change maps.
I don't need to get divorced at my age. With 5 cars already, if I get another car, I'm either going to be sleeping in the shed or the wife will kick me out . Been trying to sell one for a couple of weeks, but no luck yet. Even at a loss, people still want something for nothing.

Do you have a part number or any advice on where to find the 74mm throttle body for the 986/987 plenum?
