Softronic requires the “left and right” ECU sent to them to flash the Ferrari F430 ECU on the bench. The ECU flash will alter your fuel and timing maps to give you a very dominating increase of power over stock. For those worried about check engine lights, there are none! Our flash also raises the O2 limits so those running catless race pipes will not have a CEL. The overall improvement of drivability makes the Ferrari F430 even more fun then it was originally. Softronic can program your vehicle no matter what country you are from or what octane you use. We have different maps for those running 91 octane or 93 octane and higher.
After you have ordered the ECU flash, simply remove your ECU’s from the vehicle and have them shipped to Softronic East. Once they receive it, they will flash the units and then overnight them back to you which is included in the shipping charge.

Porsche 997.2 Turbo S 2011+ ECU Flash Tuning
Porsche 997.2 Turbo S – $2795
Stock Crank Power – 530HP
Tuned Crank Power – 610HP
Softronic has been able to flash the DFI cars since the 2009 Carrera came out. Now with testing completed and maps developed, the 997.2 Turbo S can be taken to a whole new level. The complexity of the maps and tuning of the DFI Turbo is much different then the earlier 997 Turbo. With the stock car making about 1.0bar of boost, the new flashed file gains about .2bar of boost. Having made changes to both the fueling and timing tables, we are able to get a safe and reliable increase of power to the car. With their Flasher Client software, Softronic is reading a full 1mb of the file to completely tune the ECU. Other companies claim to be able to do this, but are only read 128kb and making global changes. The ECU flash retains your factory SPORT mode function, but also increases your boost under normal use. For those worried about check engine lights, there are none! For those running a high flow cat exhaust system, Softronic raises the O2 levels which will remove the possibility of having a CEL from this type of exhaust. Once the car is flashed, the turbos will come on much quicker and the car will pull harder to the 500rpm increase of the redline. The overall improvement of drivability makes the 997.2 Turbo S even more fun then it was originally. Since warranty is always a concern, Softronic also provides you with your original file. With this original file you can flash your car back to stock at any point. If you go to the dealer, there will be nothing visible through the Porsche PIWIS system. Softronic can program your vehicle no matter what country you are from or what octane you use. We have different maps for those running 91 octane or 93 octane and higher.
What are the benefits/functions of going with Softronic compared to the competition?

2010 997.2 Turbo ECU Flash Tested – 50awhp Gain!
We just finished testing the Softronic ECU Flash on a 2010 Porsche 997.2 Turbo. The test car was a PDK running on 91octane fuel with an ambient temperature of about 95F outside. From the factory, the car comes with 500 horsepower to the crank and our baseline done 4 days prior was at 435awhp. Typically the Mustang AWD Dyno has about a 20-25% drivetrain loss when tested. 20% of 500 is 400whp and this car definitely exceeded that. Is it possible the 500HP rating is “underated”??? Whatever the case, once we flashed the 997.2 Turbo through the OBDII port, the car gained 50 all wheel horsepower and 54ft/lbs of torque bringing the car to 486awhp and 501 ft/lbs of torque. This test was also done with a stock exhaust system which is usually extremely restrictive. Stock exhausts generally produce alot of backpressure giving torque spikes. An aftermarket exhaust would gain another 20whp approximately.
What you can tell from this dyno is that the performance from the Softronic ECU flash gives a huge improvement in the daily driving rpm range. Peak performance comes on at about 3300rpm and holds strong to 4700rpm where the power then stays consistant to redline. Check out the pictures and video below!
Porsche 996 Turbo Launch Control Released by Softronic
Softronic is proud to offer their custom Launch Control software for the Porsche 996 Turbo vehicles. This Launch Control will work on any K16, K24 X50 or GT2, as well as custom turbo applications. The Launch Control is exclusively for Softronic customers as an add on to our ECU Flashing. This is a great modification for those drag racing, and can add substantial improvements to your 1/4 mile times.
So what is Launch Control?
Typically, launch control is used in race cars to help take off fast and efficiently at the start of a race. You might see this commonly used in Rally cars at the beginning of each stage. Many Launch Control is controlled by the computers ECU to a set RPM point and then puts load on the engine. This causes the car to build boost pressure at a stand still to reduce the lag of a normal launch. The 996 Turbo Launch Control builds 0.2Bar or 3psi of boost. This feature eliminates the possibility of dropping the clutch at to high of an rpm or over revving the car at launch. Because there is such a small threshold of action to smoothly deliver acceleration from a stand still on high horsepower cars, launch control has been created.
How do I get it?
To get launch control on your Porsche 996 Turbo, you need to have already purchased the Softronic ECU flash or you are going to order the Softronic ECU flash from our Order Page Here. For existing Softronic customers, it is really easy to do. Simply use the Paypal Button below to order and enter the last 8 of your VIN number.
