My PSI tuning impression

Just got my ECU programmed by Orton Performance (AKA Neil) with the PSI 480 package…

Me and some of my local Porsche comrades who have modified Turbos well above my level got some time behind the wheel this evening everyone was impressed PSI delivered what was promised. My wheels did not break loose in 4th but I did chirp in every gear till 4th even got the PSM light to flash , the delivery of power is very smooth (not jerky), no flat spots, pulls hard through every gear and when I drove normal you would have never guessed 16 to 18mpg on the trip computer.

Neil was a pleasure to deal with, always accessible and professional especially with the hiccup we had with UPS and the hurricane that blew by they lost my ECU and did not know what warehouse they had my package in???? Neil could have waited for the UPS investigation to take its course which was expected to take anywhere from 1-8 days instead Neil offered to fly to Miami and install/program a new ECU thankfully the package appeared and was delivered unharmed…

Neil count me in for the front lip group buy...

Vince, did u get the PSI exhaust too? That adds a lot to the driving sensation.

If you wanna do the break dance you gotta go for the 550 kit

It's good that you confirmed my *** dyno feel. The 480 kit's pull is awesome and honest.
