You are spot on it is a piggy back ..but isn't this a better way as you can unplug it for Porsche servicing..so not detectable

 

Absolutely not. You're basically blindfolding the ECU and relying on a box full of resistors to make the correct decisions for you. It's a shortcut for companies that do not have the abilities to get into the ECUs to release something to the public.

 

I agree that piggies are not best but Austin doesn't the ecu look commanded versus actual AFR and trim from there? Also I would imagine that piggies don't play with closed loop trims nor would would it play with KR tables. I would assume that ecu commands certain KPA and will modulate DC until desired is achieved.this is the area were they use resistors and ect...
Am I right on these accounts?

 

I believe esmotor has a tune for the 991 turbo already?

 

this is why if you're in the tuning business do not start a teaser thread until you have fully developed the software. With delays like this you brought it on yourself.

 

What the hell are you talking about? Thread was started by Champion. GIAC is developing the software. Not even the same company.

 

Subscribed!!!

 

OK ill give you that but didnt Champion give us a "reach around" and tease us on how great they and GIAC are coming along on the software? Wanna me to post up their own words?
Actually now that you pissed me off here..

"so we could begin the first stage of ECU programming with our partners at GIAC"

They probably melted a piston! LOL

 

Actually, we have several test cars running and driving with the software both here in Florida and on the West Coast at GIAC in California. If you're in Florida, why don't you stop by and take a ride in it?

I'm not quite sure what you're so pissed off about. We've tried to keep everyone updated as often as possible. If you're upset that we're trying to deliver the most thoroughly tested and reliable software upgrade for the 991 Turbo, then I do apologize but you better just unsubscribe from this thread because you're not going to be happy... LOL

 

I did not direct my "pissed off" at you. Please go back and read. My issue with this thread was based on your posts. i would have expected some sort of hard numbers. I get it, vendors are in the biz of teasing us to promote your product and generate interest but come on give up some details!

 

So do you guys have difficulties with the ecu programming?

 

No, not at all. In fact, I was driving our Turbo S flashed with the GIAC performance software all weekend. It was flawless, and FAST!!

We'll be releasing the software VERY VERY soon!

 

Great news!! Can't wait for the update!

 

Correction.... FASTER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Any dynos??

 

Amazing car! Can you special order a 991 Turbo with a manual transmission? Looking forward to hearing what the dyno results are.
