Hi,
Has anybody had their non turbo P&J chipped with using APR and was tgete any noticable gains?
 
Apr?
 
Found a noticeable gain and response on a chip when I had the 993 and they were readily available. Live remaps with chipwizards have been widely recognised if you can get hold Of The man, never really heard of a chip change solution for the 996 well not one that was a reasonable cost least ways. Happy to hear differently..
 
£800 for the "solution" which on paper looks quite slick but only gives 10-20 BHP above stock on a 3.4. Pretty sure a set of free-flow exhausts / headers will give you that for similar money without affecting your engines lifespan
 
A good remap isn't about the peak figures. It's all about the drivability and where the power is. The area below the line of the graph is all important!
APR are well respected in the VAG tuning circles. Personally I'd always go with a well respected bespoke tuner for a map rather than a generic map.
 
Given the age of any 996 now, and the relative fragility of the standard M96 engine, I'd be very wary of anyone who doesn't fully understand these engines trying to remap them. IMHO.

spot on and saved me typing the same answer, a good tuner understanding the power curve and power delivery far more important for a road car than max BHP


ooops which I have just realised I did anyway :floor:
