Has anyone flashed the ecu on their 996tt? If so I would appreciate any info you can share about how it affected your car?

A significant number here on 6 Speed have flashed their 996TT.
Use the forum "search" and you will find a lot of information.

One of the best first mods to make to 996TT in my opinion. With many other cars, the flash doesn't do much other than to give you a different throttle response and maybe a few more horses that you can't feel. For the 996TT, it's a real gain.

some sites suggest IPD plenum as an excellent bang for the buck mod as well for the 996tt, but I rarely hear people chat about it. Would the plenum be a good #2 mod to do, performance-wise?

I purchased my 996TT already flashed, so although I cannot comment specifically on the comparison to a stock 996TT I can tell you that my car offers great drive-ability and I haven't had any issues as a result of being flashed. My flash is an older one (Gemballa) too, and I've heard that some of the newer flashes are even better in terms of power and driveability, so I suspect you'll be fine with pretty much any of the current generation of ECU flashes. Good luck to you!

Has anyone flashed the ecu on their 996tt? I think who hasn't flashed would be easier once you start there is no turning back.....
