I'm assuming you'll get your tune way before the Feb 14th sale end. Please post your thoughts after you put it in for some of us on the fence! Thanks!!

This looks like an awesome deal!

Nick is correct. You can ask our programmers to write for the stock rev limiter.

We recommend stock plugs. Plugs are really the only thing that we recommend you to take care of. If your plugs are fresh then you need not worry but please change them if they are older than the recommended Porsche interval.

With those issues resolved I'd have to given this great deal serious consideration.

Sent you a pm.

Nice speaking with you the other day. Give me a call when your all set.

Does the new software work with new MacBook Air? It doesn't even have a CD drive so I have no idea how to install windows xp on it to load the FVD software.

Somebody correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure you need Windoze on your Air (I use Parallels and Windoze on mine). FVD sends a usb drive with the kit.

Does it make sense?

Good afternoon.
Does it make sense to upgrade your ECM without any other mods?

Yes, you give-up about 20hp and 10-15tq without an exhaust upgrade that you may/may not notice. I'm doing it without the exhaust which I may add later. The current sale price is just too good to pass-up right now IMO.
