E-manage ultimate do not have harness for the 996. So it is needed to cut stock wires.
If you tune by yourself, below may be needed.
1. Wiring diagram of ECU for E-manage wiring
2.ECU modification in order to E-manage tune ignition timing
3. A/F ratio sensor
4. Exhaust temperature sensor(optional)
The merit of E-manage is that I can easily adapt fuels for seasons, modification, etc.

Easier said then done and it doesnt work like that. The ECM Tune has to matched to his equipment, every Turbo/Supercharger has different "Flow Mapping", different CFM Output at different RPMs. Then also is engine, asuming its a 3.6L Vario-Cam, the Ignition Curves are different, fuel mapping...ect.
VF and others just wont sell the Software with out their product.
Some tuners like Softronic can write software for him but it is intensive, alot of Data-Logging and trail & error and ALOT of time on the Dyno.
I have several months of Data-Logging and tuning to get over 500HP at the crank.

The kit looks like a stock VF to me and if it is VF will reflash your DME to work with the kit there are many used kits and even quoted me a price, however there is no guarantee and the MAP cannot be modified if you wish to change the kit. Softtronic told me they would not tune it? When tuning the biggest issue seems to be the timing vs AFR when FVD was tuning mine and no longer tune to Durametric log data as the dyno test.

Data-Logging records your Fuel Trims and Timing along with every other engine data. Unless you have the VF, Softronic, FVD sitting there with a laptop they cant tune in real time. You run the car on the dyno, send them your Data Log, then they tweak it and send it back to be flashed, then you run on the Dyno again, send your Data Log then they tweak it again, over and over until they get every horsepower possible out of your engine. Its taken me well over 20 hours of Data Logging to get 487hp and now that i added Methanol Injection they are going to tweak some of the settings again, so im running perfect at over 500hp at the crank. Will be posting dyno sheets soon.

I located a local softronic dealer in my area from their site and they said they would do a live custom tune on a dyno.
What do you guys think? Although i would like to get the VF software for the kit but getting an email response has been so difficult.
Shop is called Pacific Western Performance in vancouver if anyone locally has dealt with them?

I don't understand why the maker of the kit won't work with MadeinPorsche on the ECU tune. It is a new kit, so they have been paid for the kit (and probably the ECU tune as part of the package). Now he is willing to pay them again for the ECU tune. Looks to me like they don't stand behind their product, and if they don't then everyone considering buying their product should be informed of this. It really should not matter whether it is new or used for that matter.
This is a little like Porshce (or another car maker) saying if you did not buy the car from them they won't service it. A terrible policy and terrible customer/product support.

Hi rokkoutaishi
Im considering to use the AEM FI/C on my SC project on my 996 -99
Just wondering if you have any CEL or other error on the DME or is it working fine with the e-manage system?

No CEL or errors. The car runs perfectly. It is easy to tune A/F ratio because E-manage can automatically tune fuel amount aim to A/F ratio you input, using signal captured from wideband O2 sensor. I do not know whether the AEM FI/C can, however.
