996 Turbo Tuned at the Texas Mile
We visited the Texas Mile event on October 16-18 where cars competed to see what their top speed would be in a standing mile. This customers red 996 Turbo was complete stock except a K&N filter and some diverter valves. We added a K16 ECU flash to take it from .6bar to 1.0bar of boost and add almost 80 horsepower to the car. Needless to say the driver improved his top speed tremendously! Softronic was able to remotely flash his car through the OBDII port wirelessly completely the entire upload and download in just under 2 hours on site.
756 Wheel Horsepower 997TT Tuned by Softronic
Softronic has finished tuning a monster of a 997TT. Equipped with parts from Agency Power and built by Vivid Racing, this 997 Turbo pushed some serious wheel horsepower on this Mustang AWD Dyno. As it gets ready for the Texas Mile, Vivid Racing added new intercooler piping, intakes, plenum, and throttle body to achieve this huge power. With 1.4bar of boost and 109 Octane gas, this car is truly a handful. Checkout the dyno sheet and video below.

Upgraded Your Porsche 997 VTG Turbos and Not Making Boost?
Once you upgrade your 997TT VTG Turbochargers and flash the car from us at SoftronicTuning.com, you need to calibrate or initialize the wastegate actuators. This can ONLY be done using a Porsche PIWIS tool which all Porsche dealers have. The ECU program file is working, but the car needs to communicate with the new turbo actuators. To do this process, simply follow these instructions with your shop:
Softronic Racing Plenum Kit and ECU Flash Installed on 987 Cayman S
One of our customers just sent us pictures of his yellow Cayman S from Malaysia that he installed the Softronic Racing Plenum and Software kit on. The plenum is a pretty easy install as the main hassle is getting off the engine access panel. The plenum and throttle body are a larger diameter then the stock unit to give you a true 25whp when the car is tuned. The ECU flash process is pretty simple too. The SRP kit includes the Durametric Cable which allows you to do ECU Flashing in minutes, see the instructions here - www.softronictuning.com/installation. The customer was VERY VERY pleased with the performance gain and looking to an exhaust now. Here are some pics.
Concerned About Emission Testing for your ECU Tuned Porsche?
Many states have very strict emissions regulations that can cause you headache if your car does not pass. Softronic is well aware of this and has developed their ECU Tuning to assist you in a smooth emissions friendly experience. First, when an ECU is flashed with Softronic, it is in the “Ready Position” for the government workers to connect via OBDII. No codes or faults are present from the flash. Second, because of the change in air/fuel ratio’s on a RPM basis, idle testing should not be affected for AWD cars that cannot run on the dyno at the emissions inspection station. If all else fails, Softronic always provides you with your TRUE and ORIGINAL file which you can flash back to stock.
