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.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I want to get some more performance out of my '02 996 C2 and I'm pretty green at aftermarket stuff and Porsches in general (let's say I've got 3 monthly payments worth of knowledge). I've read about intakes, exhausts, suspension mods, etc but one thing that I can't seem to figure out is if the GIAC chip works in a tiptronic car. The list I saw only listed 6 speeds. Do ya know if this chip or another brand will work and even if it is worth the $$$ for the small increase in performance? Thanks. Joe

POST 2Original post

I believe the average hp gains on a chip/flash on our NA cars is ~ 10hp... Personally for me, the bang per buck is too low for me to consider a chip...maybe if it was $400-500...

POST 3Original post

Just flashed my tip last week cost $1000 with dyno included. Have schnell intake with k&n, ap mufflers, and the car is a tip. I got 12/hp&12/tq. Car runs smoother and is crisper in response. Hope this helps. JW

POST 4Original post

Anybody done the GIAC chip flash as well as the Evom V-Flow air induction system and their sport exhaust? They claim a 25-30 HP gain and 18-20 TQ gain? I'm scheduled to take my 966 in for this mod in 2 weeks.

POST 5Original post

I remember when people used to say the same thing about JWT ECU's that cost $595..

POST 6Original post

I have the GIAC and the Evom but a stock exhaust. I have never dyno'd though.

POST 7Original post

Sharky did the EVOM CAI, flash performance, Schnell headers, mufflers.....and I love the difference in performance. Well worth it to me.

POST 8Original post

Are you happy with the performance result? would you do it again?
