Hey guys, I am new to Porsche and just got a 992 c4s manual. I just flashed the M-engineering tune on my car. Have been running it for about 2 days now. Car seems to sputter for a sec around 5500 rpm in second at wot and again at later rpm. Seems to do the same thing in 3rd gear as well. I saw someone else mention this also its not traction control since I have it off and confirmed. I sent a log to them to review as well.

Thanks guys, seen some gnarly gas lately across the country pulling more timing than usual in some places. Been hit or miss.
Always happy to review logs and advise as needed.

Question...If you run a 91 file...any benefit in putting in 93/94 fuel?
Anticipating a road trip where 93/94 fuel may or may not be available and I dont bring a laptop to reflash.
May make sense just to run 91 file in advance and fill up with best fuel available.

Should not the tune be able to adjust to either 91 or 93??

If you are going on a roadtrip and don't bring a laptop and cable with you to change the calibration, it's best to just stick with the 91 flash on the car. Filling the car with 93 or higher won't hurt it'll only help.

This is why I got the extended range fuel tank; for the rare occasion I might venture off into the mountains where there’s no 93.

I have your OBD remote tune on my UK 992 C4S.
I'm noticing clutch slip in gears 1 and 2 and from my experiences on the R35 GR6 platform, we had Cobb AP and Ecutek available to alter the CC and TP of the trans.
Is there a solution for the 992 PDK and if not, do you plan on releasing a softwire suite to allow this as surely Porsche technicians can adjust them?

I believe that the PDK tune is in the pipeline and getting close to release. A number of us waiting for this.

Well, I did my first launch control today.
What happened?
Well, for launches pre-flash the RPMs go to about 5k and don’t go any higher until you release the brake.
With this map, your RPMs go up to near redline. When I released, the tires spun before I could hook up and go.
Suffice to say that getting a better launch is not the reason to get this tune (especially if you want to save your tires!) but if the tires could actually hook up I have no doubt this this launch gets you easily under 3 seconds 0-60 mph.

Fyi, tested my launch control today as a sanity check since having the rev limiter removed, and it’s working normal. Revs to 5k rpm and launches.

I asked M-Engineering to flatten the boost curve on the 93 Stage 3 tune, it did seem to help with traction and even the PDK slipping.

Hey guys and gals,
Wanted to chime in and say hello, we've updated the website to include the added features we can provide with calibrations. These are many features that other calibrators don't have, or they charge for. We include these upon request!
We also are selling intercoolers for the 992 Carrera platform by Do88, PM me if you'd like to purchase a set!
