Default 993 tt tuning

Guys, is it true that not every 993 tt can be tuned because it depends on the type of engine controller?
thanks

Yes and no. The NA stock '96 "batch" for 993 is a much harder / risker to "chip" (epoxied?) than the '97 batch, so few if anyone will attempt it. Have not read similar "stock" efforts on the TT M64.60 DME or if the TT S came with a different DME to gain the extra HP.

Have to wonder with the advent AI writen code, if someone will evenly reverse engineer a DME clone that can then be fully programed and yet fully integrate into the "normal" DME 993 functions. Managing the IM, Alarms, and "ball bat" / idiot light warnings is a rats nest to reproduce with typical ECU engine build replacements (Motec, etc.). Running the engine is not a big deal (for engine builders) if you are willing to give up the stock DME non engine functions or skip "integration".

In my '97 993 RS Tribute 4.0 I run both in parallel (97' DME and Motec) and just live with the lack of full integration on the dash / IM.

I talked with Todd at Protomotive and he stated that while the 96 is a bit more work there are no known issues he’s aware of.

He did my 96 about 10 years ago, no problems

What exactly did he do? What sort of gains did you achieve (qualitative / quantitative)?
