One of our customers recently got his Porsche 991 Carrera S performance upgraded with an ECU flash at Porsche of Hilton Head in South Carolina. The 991 Carrera S 3.8L comes stock from the factory with 400 horsepower. Tuning the car can enhance many aspects, including its drivability, horsepower, and torque rivaling GT3 power. The new Porsche 991 Carrera features a SDI9 ECU which can be tuned via the OBDII port with our DimSport handheld flashing tool. The process of flashing your car using the handheld tuner is simple as seen here. Remember, it is always important to use a battery tender as pictured when writing a big file that the SDI9 requires.
Once it is complete, technician Patrick said, “The car drove fantastic!” Coming from a man who drives and works on these vehicles daily, we can definitely respect his review. If you are interested in getting a Porsche ECU tune in the South Carolina region, contact Porsche of Hilton Head for a VR Tuned upgrade or order your 991 Carrera flash here.
Note: After you have received your tuned file and loaded it to your vehicle, do not flash your car again. Your vehicle may not start and you may need to have the ECU repaired or replaced. If the firmware was changed, do a new stock read/ID out and we will provide you with an updated tuned file.
