Unless you have multiple Porsche's or a newer Porsche (2006 and on) there are very few "coding" options that can be turned on for the 986 cars. And regardless, no Durametric can code for a new ECU, immobilizer, or key fob (which is what most people want!). Hence, most 986 owners buy the Enthusiast version (or a used Enthusiast with 1 or 2 VIN's remaining).

Understood, thanks!
