Default ECU & Tuning Options

motor is a 3.6
993 RS cams
headers
use is track and canyons
car does need tune as it will run lean under hard load
Doi need a dual o2?Have headers and has a bung for each bank.

options:
have wong do a custom tune. Local so that’s an option. But stuck w stock injectors and barn door afm. Simplest option.
do a VEMS setup. Tunable. Could also up rate injectors. Supposedly more plug and playish with pnpecu
motec will require full custom setup.
there is another option I’m considering which is a Maf conversion with updated injectors. But o2 is only a single narrow band

curious for those who have these.

You mentioned a possible MAF conversion. I would reach out to John at Vitesse to discuss some of the options mentioned here:

His products are widely praised on the 944 forum. Good luck and keep us posted!

Sounds like carbs. Or individual throttle bodies with open induction. And no muffler. Lumpy cams.

ITB was my guess with a bunch of other goodies. And also a nice mic placed by the muffler.

Yes, amazing sound... for a race car. If that was my car and I was driving from Santa Cruz to Santa Barbara, by the time I reached SLO I'd be looking to swallow the working end of a 9mm. Trust me, I like to hear what's "behind" me as much as any other enthusiast (BB twin exit system w/sport cat), but that's just too friggin' loud.

... now get off my lawn!

I can recommend SW and his custom tune. He got around 20hp out of my car with only a full headers/exhaust and air filter.

if if you are keeping a mostly stock engine, with the exception of cams... SW seems like a good value compared with going with a custom Motec solution.
