I'll believe it when I see a back-to-back dyno comparison not from the manufacturer.
Hey they do have 14 day money back garuntee so maybe I will get one and so some dyno runs myself!

We have two top-rated Porsche-trained mechanics here in Ottawa. Both recommend against changing the chip, noting that (surprise!) Porsches are much more tightly designed than most cars, and dumping undesigned power on all the other parts of a Porsche with a hot chip gives more problems than it's worth.

Your car uses a turbocharger to maximize power of its engine, however your car does not use sufficent boost to produce good power. There are 2 modifications which we perform on your car. Firstly we change 2 chips in your cars ECU which changes fuelling, timing and boost output. Secondly, we increase the boost output of the turbo charger even further by modifying the wastegate.
