Ferrari 360 ECU Flash Tuning
Ferrari 360 Modena | Spyder – $1995
Softronic requires the “left and right” ECU sent to them to flash the Ferrari 360 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 360 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 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.
