Hey Loren,

Would you be able to look up the Part # for for my 2006 Cayenne Turbo S "ECU", or do you need my VIN# because there are more than one?

Not at all Loren,

GIAC and one other vendor are requesting my ECU part number to know what they offer for (my car) ECU remapping.

Strange, I understand what you are saying Loren but then I have to ask, the ECU is programmed the same for a Turbo or Turbo S, I would have to say no. Or is this just the part (ecu) and then a dealer/porcshe would have to program it to the model it will be used in/for.

If so I guess that is what they are requesting...?

Ok, so that all makes sense then. I am at a bit of a lose as to what they want (they state ECU #).

The Dealer is working on the car still, and they gave me the Serial # and Sfotware # and GIAC said "no" neither of those...

I wonder once i pick up my durametric if that will show the "ecu #" there are referring too?

Ah.... perhaps they want your IPAS codes.

Be very careful getting those and handing them over to someone. With those codes you can dupe keys and steal your car.

Very good to know Loren, many thanks. Once my durametric comes in, will I see the IPAS code labeled as such ("IPAS")? This way I make sure I do not hand that over to anyone. I am guessing the software will show the ECU # which I hope is not the IPAS code you meantion and is what they need...?

No, your car's IPAS codes must be obtained from a dealer. They should not charge you for this information - but as I said protect them with your life.
