Not sure, I always preferred to be flashed by any good looking girl in my 996TT. Do they specialize in this now?

I used Scott and April from Softronics. Everything was perfect with no issues or CEL's

I'm very happy with my EPL (European Performance Labs) tuning on my GT2...previously had GIAC on it.
Fast, consistent, reliable. 0 issues and hauls a$$ safely at the track allday...
Tune is custom/dialed into my desires, not a 'Can' tune, although the 'can' is damn good too...
Will most likely do my dad's 6TT at some point too, he is also thinking about picking up a Cayenne TT-which again will probably be tuned..EPL

Has anyone measured performance figures with the tunes? 60-130? 0-100? Compared to other cars?

it's about as hard to find folks with complaints with their tunes etc as it is posts about how few issues their cars have. that said, the guys that tend to customize their tunes to suit their individual clients needs tend to be more client oriented and after tune available, as there WILL be stuff to tweak as you ( if ) you add stuff down the line and who doesn't....

the usual suspects come to mind. umw/911tuning/cobb thru sam at by design just to name a few. but many/most OTS tunes for these cars provided it is a "first" mod w maybe just exhaust, any reputable tuner ( fvd/cargraphics/giac/evoms ) will also work just fine. keep in mind, folks have been tuning these for over 10-15 years. not too many ways to reinvent the tune, by now. unless the tune is part specific e.g. hybrid/larger than stock turbo's/injectors/ etc etc.. it becomes "parts dependent, but not if a tune is the "first and only" thing you'd be doing. best however to think ahead, and go with a tuner ( smaller ) place that will let/help you re-flash as your goals and parts for the car change over time. also the smaller shops that have tunes, tend to be less, off the shelf, expensive.
