I will say one thing, I dont care what he did to the car, It sounds magnificent!!

Hey Marty,

One of the goals of SPI was to create a standalone that not only solved a lot of the tuning limitations of the stock ECU....but make it practically invisible to the end user with the same OEM reliability. 99% of folks on this board would not know this car was powered by a different computer other than stock unless Tym told you. That's why he has been taking his time working it with seemless 'OEM-like' drivability.

There will be lots more details coming....this was just a teaser video to let everyone know if they are interested in this tuning option, it's just about available to the public.

If it can get rid of PSM, I'm game.


Does this mean it can be dyno tuned, or that it has to be pre tuned by switzer. If that's the case, making tunes for all the various mods combinations on the 996 TT and 997 TT will take a while.

Just for those who do not know, and nothing to take away from Switzer... but it still takes Protomotive to make it work... I'm not getting into details but I'm sure due credit will come when its due...

That thing revs like a high compression motor! Holy shiat.

What bnefit does a standalone provide? Can't all parameters be reprogrammed in the factory ECU?

Sign me up! If this is an AEM based system than that is going to be amazing what we can do as far as tuning and options. 2 step rev limiters, meth injections options, flat-foot shifting, speed dependant boost, etc. Cant wait for the details on this !!!
