It takes several hours to do, as he tailors a map for your particular car, testing each change as he makes it, on the dyno.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

15 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

can anyone recommend and share their experience of an ECU remap, cost - hp increase - supplying companies knowledge etc, seems like 600 quid can buy an extra 20 hp? lee

POST 2Original post

from what I understand a remap aint worth the cash unless you have a turbo. you wouldnt notice a 20bhp increase.

POST 3Original post

I had a Cayman S with a remap and milltek sports exhaust, which of course i removed and refitted the normal exhaust, and had the ecu remapped to the original programme The exhaust was s##t, very bassey, any difference in throttle response was masked by the appalling sound from the exhaust I wouldn't waste your money, on a turbo i could understand but even with sports chrono on a 997 the sport setting is very difficult to differentiate from the normal,so its a bonus if you buy one with it

POST 4Original post

on 300bhp 20BHP is about 7% increase I think, which you should notice But one of the key points with ones like the DMS chip is that you get better fuel figures, and torque. It aint all about BHP

POST 5Original post

Tedz, I'm happy with mine couldn't tell you what HP gain is but with zorst and CAI and the MAP the car is a lot more responsive. - Simon

POST 6Original post

Simon Thanks for this, do you know who did your chip/remap? What is zorst and CAI please? Kind Regards Edward

POST 7Original post

Edward, Sports and Classic did my mapping Zorst = Exhaust CAI - Cold Air Induction - Simon

POST 9Original post

I'm considering using Pendle Performance for my re-map. The website quotes £300 and +25bhp/+30Nm. But all I want really is to have the car set up to run 'as it should'. By that I mean smooth the power/torque curve out and that should have a positive effect on driveability and fuel consumption.

POST 10Original post

Remap Unless Turbo not worth it BUT if you have a Turbo then prepare for your senses to be scrambled

POST 11Original post

You mean Pendle Performance who advertise on eBay, don't have a rolling road, and check the car by a test drive at the end of the remap? I believe you might also be able to meet them in a layby or car park somewhere. Excuse my cynicism, but there are very few places I would trust to do a remap, and it certainly wouldn't be one without proper facilities. Not that I would consider it myself on a n/a 996 anyway, but I would want a custom live remap on a dyno by someone who really knew what he was doing, and that would cost more than £300.

POST 12Original post

Interesting Richard, I didnt know that! explains why half price! I have heard great things in EVO about DMS http://www.dmsautomotive.com/

POST 13Original post

http://www.west-tuning.com/ ....they understand Turbo's & GT2's rather well. I think some of the other guys mentioned on here use to work/learned the tuning business at West! The other guys to consider talking with are Regal motorsport or Wayne at Chip Wizards.

POST 14Original post

+1 for DMS +1 for Wayne Schofield Definitely two I would trust. I don't know if Wayne does 996s now, but I do know the care and effort he takes over remapping 993s. It takes several hours to do, as he tailors a map for your particular car, testing each change as he makes it, on the dyno. That's why it isn't cheap, but it is right.

POST 15Original post

Thanks Richard, i'd only looked at their website which was given to me by a friend of a friend. Didn't know those details you mentioned. I definitely will NOT be going there!!
