hmmmm

oki cargraphic is good and better than Softronic .. !

but still i think the softronic can't make good numbers like techart and cargraphic

 

Stock is indeed good. Softronic should, and hopefully will be better.

Scott Slauson's follow up on this matter is first rate.

I screwed up the Durametric logs so I need to repeat the tests. I will also try to get it on a Dyno and log data on the dyno as well. I will send Scott all the info when I have it. I am certain that when all is said and done, the Softronic tune will get the results I am hoping for.

Shhhhh... Quietly now, you'll wake her from her slumber.

No mate. Nothing wrong with either the car or the PBox. Both are fine.
You gotta remember that this is not a .1TT, it's a .2.
It hasn't yet had it's share of testing and development and optimization and may not be as mature as the .1 tune.
I'm guessing Scott needs to tweak the tune for our conditions here.

I re-read the tuned file and sent it to Scott and he compared it with the tuned file he sent me and it checks out 100%. The car is correctly flashed.

I want to do my upgrades incrementally.
I need to see a marked improvement in the car's performance over stock as a result of the tune first before I add other upgrades. If not, than the value of the tune is called into question.
I am confident that Scott will work it out. It will take some time and some effort on both our parts: myself with the test runs and the durametric data logging, and Scott with the analysis and the tweaking. Ultimately, it'll get there.

With the level of support and commitment I am getting from Scott, I am not worried. He's been exceptional so far.

 

Thanks for your input bro.

I think it is way too early to start drawing conclusions like that.
I have spoken with Scott Slauson on the phone and we have exchanged numerous emails.
The man is very knowledgeable. I have reason to believe that with a bit of time and effort, the tune will get there.

Let's not jump to conclusions until the proverbial "fat lady" does her thing!

 

I stand corrected... I am indeed talking about my 997.1

 

What way of launchiing the car did give you the best times?

 

Best 0-100 time in Sport+ mode using Launch Control. 100-200 time suffered.

Best 100-200 time in Sport mode with brake/gas sidestep brake around 2.5K RPM. 0-100 time suffered.

 

Small update:

Just completed the PBox runs and the Durametric logs that Scott Slauson requested from me.

I made a total of 6 runs as follows:
2x runs in Sport + using launch control, one with PSM on and one off
2x runs in Sport with brake/fuel launch at 3k RPM, again PSM on & PSM off
2x normal mode same as above

All runs were individually logged with Durametric with the following parameters being monitored:
1- Engine Speed
2- Engine Load
3- Lambda Bank 1
4- Timing Angle
5- IATs
6- MAF

All info was sent to Scott and I am waiting for his feedback.

Thanks for following on this thread.

Forgot to mention:

Ambients were a cool 90.5*F
No humidity to speak of.

 

I'm also interested in a 60-130 time. Thanks

 

any updates?

 

Thanks for the interest guys.

I am out of town for the moment. Will be back tonight.

I will post a couple of PBox runs that I did about a week ago when attempting to log with Durametric.

My best 0-62 run was 3.28 seconds.
My best 60-130 run was 8.58 seconds. (Different run)
My best 1/4 mile trap was 11.26 seconds.

While those results might seem OK for a car with just a tune and a BMC air filter for a 997.1 TT, both Scott and I agree that the .2TT should show better results than that. The biggest disappointment is the near no-improvement at all in the 0-62 time. My best in stock form was 3.3 and in hotter weather than my best in tuned form (3.28). Also, quarter mile trap times did not improve much over stock.

Scott has a couple of ideas of how to correct the problem but he needs Durametric logs.

Apparently, however, from the Durametric files I sent him, Durametric is unable to capture timing and some other data that Scott requires to re-tune and work out the kinks. This problem is specific to the new DFI ECUs on the .2 Turbo and Turbo S.

He says that Durametric should have the problem ironed out within a couple of weeks, at which time I will re-do the runs and log the data again to send to Scott.

Hopefully, I should have a re-tuned file within 3 weeks.

In the meantime, I am about to place an order for intercoolers as that has demonstrated itself to be an absolute must for us in Kuwait.

I am debating whether to install the I/Cs before or after working out the software issue. I think I will wait to install the I/Cs just to isolate the performance improvements attributable to each component separately.

I'll post the actual PBox results very soon.

 

ICs will help you a lot in your climate conditions...What brand of ICs will you buy?

 

sorry to jump into post... but i just picked up a 2007 911 turbo with APR exhaust and ecu tune and noticed you have apr tune.... i have been trying to figure out the whole boost in sport mode thing because i really havent noticed a difference when putting it in sport mode... i didnt no that they disable this function. did u ask them to do that or thats just normally what they do?? i contacted them and they told me that its customer preference??? i aslo asked them about changeing between programs with the cruise contol.. number of blinks that correspond with tune... the answer was the same... customer preference... how is yours set up??? sorry so many questions??? just new to this.
