Does anyone have any experience with this product? Supposedly with this chip upgrade, it gives you an additional 30 hp on a 996.

i recently tested a different flash upgrade and was definitely unimpressed with my current bone stock 996. luckily for me, it was a 5 hour trial. i opted not to do it yet. i think that i have some other mods that i should probably tackle first and then get the computer upgraded for those mods.

30hp seems like an unusually bold claim.

Hello there...My 996 3.6 was measured at 302hp when completely stock...With porsche sport exhausts,KN air intake system and remap ECU the car produced 329hp...It is a difference of 27hp...If you buy only the exhausts you will gain 7hp and 1kgm torque throughout the whole rpm range...

Thanks for the replies. I guess I'll hold off for a while. 20 HP would be a more realistic gain from a ECU upgrade compared to 30. Does your car pass smog with all those mods + the chip upgrade?

Sorry, I have never seen a PSE (only install) produce any HP gain.

Thanks, I will definitely not get it. This is the shop that was advertising the ECU tuning http://www.eurobahnmotors.com/Porsche_Software.aspx

Loren, I installed the PSE and went through dyno runs...I will scan the results so that everyone can see them...2 dyno runs on the same day,same time same temperature...It seemed strange to me as well for the power increase just with the PSE...
