Softronic Vs EvoMS
EvoMS is listed at $1400 vs $1100 for Softronic (includes durametric).
Any reason to go one over the other? I know it probably depends on who you ask.
I mainly want to disable CEL after cat delete. Extra power won't hurt, I guess.
Does anyone run catless without a tune and use 02 sensor extenders/simulators?
Thanks!

just fast.

Depends. If on track never had a cel with cat delete. I did get a cel with cat delete on stock muffs on steady highway driving but once changed to fab muffs never triggered. No simulator and all o2 sensors in factory locations. Mike

The secondary O2 sensors are used to calibrate/provide reference for the primary O2 sensors. Among other things, hanging them in free air outside of the exhaust stream will throw fuel trims off and make the car run funny once it completes adaptation. In addition, I'm very surprised you didn't get a different CEL fault for no activity on the rear O2s.
Our tune works very well with the cat delete in terms of smoothing out the powerband; and will probably give you greater power gains than doing the cat delete alone will. We also go to great lengths to play around with throttle response, so power aside the car will drive quite a bit differently. Track guys love it as the car pulls much harder out of corners, allowing them to exit corners one gear higher certain instances.
Send me a PM if you're interested, I can extend a Rennlist discount to help on the price a bit .

Experience has taught me that a DME upgrade for these cars should always match the hardware - otherwise, it's just a feel good one.

One more. Most P "tuners" really have no clue whatsoever about tuning a GT3 engine. Maybe a turbo motor doing the basics but not this one. Again, I kind of paid my way through this info.
Don't look at the price tag alone.

First, with o2 extenders you will very rarely get a check engine light after cat delete. I put probably 2k miles on my car on the street since I went cat delete and have had a light twice. Both times from steady state, slow freeway driving.
I have neither companies tune in my car because I stumbled on the opportunity to get software from RS Tuning that I couldn't pass up however before that I was heavily leaning towards EvoMS and here is why. They have proven the ability to tune and make great power in complex setups. 3.9 sharky cars with cams that rev to 8800rpm. I'm pretty certain they also worked with Mike @ AWD in Florida to create e85 tunes for our cars. To me their ability to perform in those situations is the reason I would go EvoMS.

but i like the oem throttle response,
can it be retained but increase high end hp. i dont care about hp under 7000 rpm. i run 91 oct
will this require a special tune or will it be a standard tune that sharkwerk can load to my ecu.

I haven’t loaded the Euro II program on the GT3 but I have on a 996 DME 7.8 and it ignores the signal from the secondary sensors.
