They say the tested on a 955 for a long time to develop it. Kent isn't having the same issue with his 957. I don't know anyone else who has a 955 to ask!

I sent them an email again today.

Well I seem to be having another issue now. The boost readings seem to be way off. Kent seems to be having much better luck with this than I am.

Shot them another email today.

Subscribing to this as I have a manual boost/vacuum gauge mounted in the drivers side far left air vent, with the T installed in the rear of the intake manifold to monitor boost/vacuum live. Works great, but would love a cleaner/nicer solution along with the option to see many more parameters at once. I have a tune, DVs, V-flow, primary cat bypass, 3" secondary cat bypass and HHR 3" SR1 exhaust.

I never did come back and update this. The intake and ignition readouts still sometimes don't start on the first try. But if I shut the gauge off and back on they work just fine.

Not sure why I was getting wonky boost readings but I think it might have been the vacuum line was loose at one of the connections. At any rate have not had any issues with that ever since. It reads rock solid all the time. I generally leave it set reading boost but it is fun to play with sometimes.

We've had amazingly hot weather here lately and it was interesting sometimes to watch the intake temp in comparison to outside temp. Even in hot weather as long as the car is moving it generally stays within about 3 degrees. But stop for a light or whatever and it shoots up pretty quickly.

The 0-60 function is fun sometimes too. It's amazing how the warm weather affects the times too. In the winter cool air I was actually getting down around 4.25 for the best times. In 90 degree temps the other day the best I could do was about 5.5+. Today it was cooler and was able to pull about a 4.5ish.

I am overdue to do a full writeup for the 957 platform. I took many pictures during the install, which should help you out, if you are thinking about purchasing one. I will try to get that writeup done this week.

By the way, according to your signature, since when do you have two Cayenne 957s?
Hi Kent, were you ever able to get this writeup completed?
