Default Lowered my 2009 Cayenne Turbo S with Durametric

Picked up the Turbo S today and lowered it via Duremetric cable as soon as I got it home. Took 25 minutes start to finish, very simple. The 25mm (215mm front and 262mm rear) resulted in just about 1.25 inches overall from stock settings, based on before and after measurements. The last photo is of it in loading level, which is pretty low. Loving this Turbo S so far, what a beast!!

Nice. You used Durametric Professional then, not Enthusiast?

I used the Enthusiast model, with 3 VIN limit.

Looks good. I've heard you should realign if you're going to run that low, it will chew up your tires

Very nice! I thought the Enthusiast DuraMetric cannot code modules but instead can only clear service intervals. Maybe I am mistaken.

Yes, it does both. I used the latest Version 6 software.

Yes you are mistaken, I made several code changes on my '06 with it. I think the only diff between Enthusiast and Pro is the number of vehicles you can connect to.

Update: Just read this in the Durametric FAQ's
Question: What is the difference between the Enthusiast kit and the Professional kit?
Answer: In Durametric version 5, the difference is the number of cars the kit allows you to work on. The Enthusiast kits are limited to use on 3 cars - managed by VIN, not model. The Professional kit has no limit to the number of cars on which it can be used. With the introduction of Durametric version 6, the Professional kits alone gain the ability to perform Coding changes on supported control units.
Something's screwy here because I've been on vs. 6 since I bought the Durametric and I've been able to make multiple code changes.

Looks great! I also have a 2009 Lava Gray...limited edition color for the 2009 Turbo S. (although it may be going away - picked it up from Rusnak in Pasadena 6 months ago today and they still have not been able to provide title so I can license it. )
