Is the tune a standard file or are the customers suppose to mention what mods they currently have to maximize the performance, or does that not matter. Is there a tune file for any octane wanted by the customer? For example here in Dubai we have 98 octane, and is each octane file completely re-calibrated? Thanks.

Good question Porsche Boy - the tune is and is not a standard file. We have different files for different cars like yours. There are standard files for 91 oct, 93 oct, and 98 octane cars. A customer with 91 octane pump would not want a 93 oct map to start with as the timing is more aggressive and the car would knock. On the reverse, a 91 octane customer can put higher octane in the car and the ECU would adjust. Basic bolt ons like exhaust, intake, intercoolers, there is no need for custom tuning. The only time you would have to do revisions is if you did larger turbos, different injectors, etc.

yeah you would be a 93 octane map. we have several customers in Dubai, Bahrain, Kuwait running our Softronic tune.

Would it be possible if there were to be a 95 or 96 octane tune available for the middle east? I ask because I believe with a higher octane tune the timing can be further increased resulting in more power.

I may be mistaken about the type of octane we use here. I will have to double check on it.

The ECU file is designed to adjust with the higher octane. So when you put in better fuel, the timing will adjust and the car will run better. For example I run a 91 octane map on mine. I use a boost controller, when I put 100 octane in, I can turn the boost up and the file adjusts accordingly.
If you wanted a specific tuned file for 95 octane with more advanced timing, we can do that too. Its part of our custom tuning program.

Hello All,
I thought I would post this screen for all the blue screen people
. Take note of the recovery icon in the image. While Softronic does not have these failure issues we still have added an extra layer of security for all users.
Best Regards,

Version 3.0 will include flashing for the 997TT cars and the DFI cars. 997TT has been completed and tested. DFI is in process. I will see if we can make some exceptions.

Do I have 5 people that want to get in on a Pre-Release special to show the power and performance of Softronic? PM me.
