To be honest I typically do not look at other tuners. We knew going in to this the opbjective was to stay safe and make as much as we could from a conservative standpoint.

I am very impressed with the way the car drives now. Well worth the effort.

couple of questions-
1) no one has shown us any AFR plots to date, could you show us any of this?

2)is your software the same as EVO and the one that Sharkwerks is using? How about Protomotive?

3)you are using the EVO header, why not the Fabspeed?

Thanks (future customer)

The AFRs are the same as we normally see. Low 12s under WOT/Full Boost. I will screen capture them when we are done with the dyno. I am tuning another 930 EFI conversion currently.

Our software is the same as EVO and Sharkwerks. We three currently are the only dealer other than one more GIAC dealer flashing the 997TT. The idea was we are the ones that actually own the cars and can test, beat the heck out of them without worrying. You can't do that on a customer’s car. Our car has been apart so many times I can't recall. Protomotive is soldering their ECUs so I am told and do not use the same software that we do.

The header design from the collector point of view and the tuning of the pipes are much different and the ID s larger than the FS units. I am using the new FS exhaust and HFCs but the headers I am not. I will test them in the future for a point of reference.

Stephen,

Have you done any work with a tiptronic 997TT? When will pricing be released?

Stephen I'd really be interested to see a side by side comparo btwn the fabspeed and evo headers, that would be interesting to say the least. I suspect the gains would be the same with either.

Here is the next thing to fit and test! Being that stage 3 yielded 522 at the wheels and 531 to the wheels I excited to see what we might pull with these. If nothing else sustained runs will yield higher MPH due to heat soak.
