Here's mine installed. Removed the side panel on the PCM and little carpeted piece and routed the wire behind to the accelerator pedal. Ther
e is just enough room at the bottom of the panel to squeeze it in without damaging the wiring. Ziptied it up and good to go!

If the driver is able to blip the throttle (via accelerator pedal) when downshifting then the AUTO-BLiP would do exactly the same. The connections to the vehicle to trigger the blip will be different as there is a paddle signal that would trigger the downshift and this same signal can be use to trigger the AUTO-BLiP instead of the clutch pedal. Also a brake signal should not be required.
Anybody out there have an AUTO-BLiP hooked up in a PDK car?

I have 35 days on track on my pdk 987.2S in manual mode. All shifts perfect.
This gentleman who posted the question didn't say anything about pdk. He simply asked if this product would work with his 991 with Sport Chrono.

Thanks so much for the pictures! I had asked the group buyers to help us out with more installation pictures, and you did! Appreciate it.

Ok. Installed mine today. Attaching a few pictures. Installation was pretty straight forward. Took me maybe an hour. Over 100 degrees here today, so everything gets a little slippery when your working in cramped spaces. Initial impression, do not walk but run to get this for your next modification. It's freaking awesome, exactly what I needed! They way my 997 engine is built, 3.8 metzger and revs up to 8k rpm, I've got my duration set all the way up and it sounds amazing. So much more easier to drive when I'm downshifting in a turn or corner. Highly recommend this. Wish I would have known about it sooner.
