Flashing 996 Tune on my Boxster S

[jmitro]

any idea what sort of BHP or WHP you're getting with all the modifications you've made?

I just installed a 74mm TB and Ben's carbon fiber intake and have exhaust and a custom intake... very interested in the results of the 996 tune!!

You only need the tune if you install a larger MAF Tube. So if you do the 987 Airbox paired with the MAF Tube, you need it. Otherwise the car will lean out

There are adjustment and power gains to be had from a remap even if you don't use the 987 MAF. I did the mods and a remap on my last 986 and showed Dyno gains for each set of mods.

Well that’s good to know. I didn’t want to say yes without confirmation

Thanks, would you share your numbers and/or dyno charts? Lots of claims but no one ever shows proof. 986 base or S?

Yes, early in the other thread on 987 airboxes there were several promised dyno figures which somehow never appeared.

I've posted it a few times before. I think you should be able to find the old posts.

Not enough power gain to justify the cost.

£300 for half a day on the Dyno means it is cheaper than parts plus labour to fit the cheap eBay manifolds or the cheap sports cats for around the same gain. Plus you can adjust other maps to alter the throttle response characteristics.

I am not sure, they say it will create 15-20 HP. There is no lag now from 4000-5500 RPM. Very linear power and pull. It’s worth it!
