Tuning options for Cayenne S E-Hybrid?
Are there any tuning options stateside for the supercharged motor in the Cayenne S E-Hybrid? Looking for a simple stage 1 flash.

I dont believe there is, but that engine is the 3.0T from Audi. I had it in my S4 and got it close to 450hp. You could try APR and ask them if there Stage 1 tune could work on your Porsche. I doubt they will do it, but you could ask. You could do the supercharger pulley and gain some low end boost, but it would still be managed by the stock tune and bleed off boost at the maximum. Let me know what they say if you contact them. Rick.

Yep, I'm 90% sure its basically the motor from a B8/B8.5 S4. I don't think it would be hard to adapt the tune to the Porsche ecu, but not sure Apr or Giac would deem it worthwhile given the small number of owners.

I have asked about this already for my 2016 eHybrid. APR essentially said they may or may not look into it:
Hey Chiapet15,
Thanks for reaching out to us. Unfortunately our tunes and calibration are going to be vehicle specific. So we do not have a tune for the Cayenne S eHybrid and the S4 tune would not work on it either. It could possibly be something we offer in the future as we are working towards more Porsche tunes in the future. If you have any other questions please let me know.

You could always go with the piggyback tune for the ehybrid that's available from Racing Chip. However, based on what i've read, because there's additional delays in the feedback loop and the transmission shifting isn't adapted, the power delivery isn't smooth
