. As a 6speed forum member, you do get 10% off their pricing. Talk to her. You won't regret it.

Thank you!

I just checked the COBB website. They only show tuning for 911's. I have a Boxster S.

I was looking at FVD and EPL. I know Cobb is the rage because they have a bunch of guys saying how great they are. You always want to be safe on a tune if you can.

Oh and I would research Softronic as much as you can. A number or tuners have had some not so nice things to say, do a search. And until the durametric he sends can be swapped for the one from Durametric he can keep his POS. Point is there are so many more options out there.

there are a handful of good tuners including FVD, they all bring different things to the table with the products they offer... the devil is in the detail

LOL , Softronic has offered for years the capability for a customer to use their own Durametric cable..... We also supply one if you do not have one.

We offer a discount if you use your own cable, however it would not be what you paid for a cable as our prices are different. We do not pay retail for cables. The cable we send out is typically good for one VIN in which would be used on the car that is being flashed. We do also offer when buying a flash a Profi cable at a discounted rate if you wanted that instead.
