Porsche 997.2 Carrera 4S Tuned to Beat the Buddies

The DFI (Direct Fuel Injection) Porsche 997.2 Carrera was released for the 2009 and 2010 models as a facelift and engine change to the 997.1 Carrera from 05-08.  The Carrera variant was still available in a 3.6L or 3.8L engine but now the new “automatic” versions was the start of the PDK transmission.  Shifting incredibly fast, the PDK was leaps and bounds better than the Tiptronic.  Producing 380 horsepower to the crank, the 997.2 Carrera S has more to give much like the earlier 997.1 Carrera.  Doing an ECU flash is a great way to improve the 997.2 Carrera’s throttle response, low end torque, and mid range pull to redline.  When we tune the 997.2, we alter things like the torque limiter, speed limiter, fueling, timing, and can make changes for high flow or catless exhausts.  The ECU Flash done to the Siemens SDI3 ECU is very easy all via the OBDII port following our instructions at www.vrtuned.com/installation.

As this customer put it, “My friends will be even more jealous.  Here’s a pic, quick, and easy!”  You can order your Porsche 997 Carrera Flash Here.

Porsche 997.2 Turbo PDK ECU Upgrade

One of our overseas customers has this beautiful 2010 Porsche 997.2 Turbo PDK.  Having owned the Porsche 997.2 Turbo S, we are very experienced on how different products improve the performance of this vehicle.  Instead of 530bhp, the regular Turbo has 500bhp.  However when modded they can both achieve the same result in performance since the basic difference between the Turbo and Turbo S is mapping.  This customers car already had a flash on it so we helped improve the flash by dialing in the boost, fuel, timing to work better with his Akrapovic exhaust.  The result is a very happy customer!  He tells us, “The ECU program is better a lot than the other one, especially in sport mode,it make me feel comfort but more faster reaction.”  Ready to get your Porsche 997 Turbo Tuned?  Go Here.

Performance Tuning of the Porsche Cayman S

The Porsche Cayman S from 2005-2008 features a 3.4L engine that produces 291 horsepower to the crank.  With its rigid body and mid-engine design, the Cayman S is a perfect street or track vehicle. With the desire to improve throttle response and driveability, the Cayman S can definitely benefit from a ECU flash.  The VR Tuned ECU Flash is all done via the OBDII port for the 05-10 models.  Following our simple instructions here, we provide you with a tuned file and your original file to be used at anytime.  When tuning the Porsche 987 Cayman S, parameters are adjusted including the torque limiter, O2 sensor limits for secondary cat removal, changing the rev limiter on 6speed cars, and of course, improving upon horsepower and torque.  Power increases go up from stock of 291HP to 315hp with a torque gain of 251ft/lbs to 268ft/lbs.  If you are looking for a great upgrade to your Porsche Cayman that is effective, safe, and reliable, the VR Tuned ECU Flash is it!

Porsche Cayman Boxster Tuning, Dyno, and Expectations – In Our Words

Having been around so many different cars, we really get the chance to learn how each vehicle reacts to different modifications.  Since we began in the Porsche market back in 2006, we have probably worked with a 100+ Cayman and Boxster owners.  The 987 is a great platform and responds well to mods.  As a normally aspirated engine, basic bolt-ons such as exhaust, intake, plenum, and ECU flash are really the basics.  Forced induction kits are available, however for the reliability and driveability, the opinion is still up in the air.  We know this first hand from doing a Turbo Porsche Cayman here. So when it comes to the ECU flash on the Cayman or other NA engines, what should … Continue reading
