Jokerzwld is infamous around these parts
Tuning Options for 2012 997.2 Turbo

Owners: I brought my princess to an APR facility near my home after being told the tune is available. When I arrived the owner, who BTW, is a great guy and recommend him highly from prior tuning experience, said APR told him its not available and wont be "for awhile."
So....what is available for my year as i can't find anything after doing much web surfing?
Thank you in advance-

No other tuning solution offers the easy logging features of the access port.

I have FVD's performance software tune and love it. Do your own research on the brand and if need be, either call or shoot Rhonda@FVD an email with any questions you may have. Good luck!

OP I think you need to also think about your goals, are you looking for a mild stage1 tune and only have 91oct avail? Are you MT and drag race maybe you want NLS? Do you plan on adding mods DIY and want to try diff maps and tinker alot, then ease of data logging and map change/availability becomes important etc etc

Lots of good tuners, so not easy too say one is "better" than others...

Thanks for all the kind words guys!!

Like some of the guys have said, we have been tuning the 997.2 Turbo platform longer then anyone else, and can currently lay claim to the fastest and most powerful PDK turbo cars on the road. We have spend A LOT of time with our partners at GIAC developing the software program for these cars. Their knowledge of the ECU structure of the cars along with our inside knowledge of the Porsche cars is a match made in heaven.

I don't usually brag...but right now, no one can touch our 997.2 Turbo cars.
