Racechip ECU Tuning for the 4S?
I'm getting a Panamera 4S this week - the Turbo seemed overkill for me, but the 4S felt like it was missing a little grunt. I don't think I'd do anything off the bat, but just curious about possible ECU tunes down the line. It seems like the racechip one is the only one out right now. Has anyone tried racechip before? Anyone for the 4S?

Hi - I have tried it but on my 2010 Panny Turbo. IT was OK except the whole car was running too lean. Unless you get a 'custom' race chip tune (it's possible) then I think it should be fine. Otherwise just go with a direct ECU tune. I returned my race chip and got a direct tune and have been happy with it
Thx

VR Tune has the instructions posted if you want to eye-ball how it's installed and works:

How did this work out? Any updates? Satisfaction for the new 971 Panameras?

That was my original issue with it as well, I thought they had a fix for it later in though. I switched to a different brand that had the battery connector and had no issues after.

I just email Race chip let’s see if they have a answer, but the way how did you clear the engine light ??
