APR Plus anyone?
Does anyone have this tune with the warranty option?
How do you like it?
How does it compare to other tuners like M-Engineering in terms of technical features?

Let me ask you something. Would you sell a product for $2,400 where your liability is $83k?

What are the real chances of anyone lunching a Porsche engine with a relatively conservative tune from a known reputable tuner/vendor especially with a vehicle that is run on the street and not hammered every weekend on a racetrack.
There are unfortunately many guys out there who believe that their $150,000 911 engine is running at the edge from the factory and are timid about aftermarket calibrations for that reason. 911 motors are NOT fragile and can take far more than what some 911 owners would ever guess.
Probably a good idea not to go the tuning route if you are looking absolute guarantees. You will find this advice in many of these tuning threads that generally do not end well.

But to the OP topics - I don't have the APR tune but know people who do on 991 and 992 and are very happy with it. Only caveat is I think they still require you to go to your APR rep to install/remove the tune when needed.
