Softronic Racing Plenum Kit Installed on Porsche Cayman S

Publishsed by Dan on September 25th, 2009 | Posted in Client Cars | No Comments »

One of my customers just sent us pictures of his yellow Cayman S from Malaysia that he installed the Softronic Racing Plenum and Software kit on.

The plenum is a pretty easy install as the main hassle is getting off the engine access panel. The plenum and throttle body are a larger diameter then the stock unit to give you a true 25whp when the car is tuned. The ECU flash process is pretty simple too. The SRP kit includes the Durametric Cable which allows you to do ECU Flashing in minutes, see the instructions here - www.softronictuning.com/installation.

The customer was VERY VERY pleased with the performance gain and looking to an exhaust now. Here are some pics. Will try to get him on here to write his own review

Porsche Cayman S Stops Hard at the Track with Brembo

Publishsed by Dan on June 8th, 2009 | Posted in Client Cars | No Comments »

One of our customers needed to greatly improve his stopping performance of his Porsche Cayman S at the track.  So he called Vivid Racing who is one of the top Brembo dealers to advise him on the best upgrade for his car.  His goals were to improve pedal feel, increase rotor and pad life, and retain his stock Cayman wheels.  The best solution for his needs was the Brembo 14 inch 4piston big brake kit.  This brake kit uses 2 piece fully floating slotted rotors, steel braided brakes lines, and a stiffer caliper then the stock Porsche unit.  With the 2 piece rotors, his pads would be in a true center line on braking giving him better pad wear and longer use because of the heat dissipation.  Since this cars main duty is on the track, we equipped the car with some Pagid Orange pads for a good bite.  Today is his track day so hopefully we will have some positive feedback to report!

Softronic and Vivid Racing Partner to Power Up Porsche Cayman’s

Publishsed by Dan on June 5th, 2009 | Posted in Product Info | No Comments »

The Porsche 987’s Boxster and Cayman platform is a great all around car for the street or track. Its mid engine provides great weight distribution for a well balanced vehicle. Vivid Racing’s Stage 1 kit is designed to improve the vehicles power band from increased torque to stronger pull on the top end RPM range. In addition, you will notice quicker throttle response from the improved air flow and ECU changes. 

Our Stage 1 kit consists of the Softronic ECU Flash inconjunction with their popular Softronic Racing Plenum. The plenum uses a larger throttle body to direct more air into the normal aspirated engine. With the specific tune that Softronic does for this plenum, you will gain a real and proven 25 wheel horsepower. With a 15% drivetrain loss, that takes your Cayman’s power level up substantially. The Softronic Racing Plenum uses factory Porsche parts to guarantee you an OEM look, fit, and finish with no troubles or false claims. The Softronic ECU Flash is done via the OBDII port with the provided Durametric cable. The Durametric cable also allows you to clear trouble codes, data log your vehicle, and more, see www.durametric.com for more info. The process to do the ECU flash is about 30 minutes to download your existing file and then 30 minutes to upload the new Tuned file. The Softronic ECU Flash will alter your fuel and timing maps to provide you a overall improved driving characteristics. With Softronic, you can always reload your stock file if need be.

With the use of the Softronic Racing Plenum and custom tuned ECU flash to gain 25 wheel horsepower as seen in Stage 1, we up the power of this Stage 2 kit using the Agency Power exhaust system and K&N high flow intake filter. The Softronic ECU flash is designed to take advantage of the increased air flow as provided with the larger throttle body and plenum installed. Once you have increased the intake airflow, you need to free up the exhaust system with the proper amount of back pressure retained. The Agency Power exhaust system is all T304 stainless steel designed to eliminate your secondary catalytic converters and save alot of weight reduced off the rear end. The precision tuned muffler gives the car an excellent race tone without droning in the cabin. With additional of the high flow K&N air filter, this Stage 2 kit touches an impressive 40 wheel horsepower. With a 15% drivetrain loss, your Cayman is at another level.
