I'm looking for suitable ECU tuning to complement my 1998 996 3,4 with the following engine mods:
EVOMS Intake,
IPD Plenum,
FVD Headers,
Fabspeed exhausts,
Fabspeed X-pipe sport cats.

The car is running in Europe, so the ECU should be optimised for 98 octane and preferably also have separate maps for 99 and 95 octane.


Any ideas?

Thanks,
Bjarne

 

Nobody?

So far I have obtained the following info:

GIAC:
-has a German version program listed
-probably has a 98 octane ignition map

EVOMSit:
-has a version listed to go with EVOMS intake and sports exhaust
-no 98 octane version listed

Softronic:
-can supposedly deliver custom versions for any octane level
-no version listed for the cable operated throttle 1998 3,4


Any more info would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,
Bjarne

 

hi...sorry is of the topic but are you happy with the x pipe cats?...

And i think the softronic sound good to me...i'm having the same problem to decide what ecu upgrade to do or just get the plenum?

 

I have not fitted the X-pipe cats yet, but plan to do it in the spring - hopefully with an ECU upgrade.

Softronic seems like a good option, I agree. But I am unsure if they provide SW for the 1998/1999 drive-by-cable 3,4 I have.

 

give them call and see...i think in this case you need specified ecu flash go along with your mods.
means just not generic flash but sending your ecu and list of upgrades to have customized flash to achieve the most of HP from your car....
Correct me if i'm wrong but that is what i think...

 

Bjarne,

You should speak to FVD Norway, they can have FVD Germany program for you. FVD Germany can program for the Non Egas and Egas 996 3.4L's. They can also program for all of those mod's.
