Is there possibility to flash Boxster's ECU from year 2004 by any flash file from 996 3.6 engine? (ME 7.8)
My engine is only variocam but compatible 996 ECUs are with variocam plus.
Seems it is no simple flash as it used to be with older Boxsters. (ME 5.2.2) Am I right?

My planned setup 987 Airbox, 987 MAF, custom hose, GT3 TB, custom T part printed on 3D printer (see Ben06's thread). Rest of the engine OEM. Long exhaust manifolds and sport exhaust are already installed in the car.
