Once I installed the Softronics tune on Monday the car really woke up. It seemed to compliment the exhaust mods perfectly. The 7500 RPM rev limit makes a big difference believe it or not. It also helps to keep the car in the higher powerband when you shift to the next gear. My car is much more responsive than before and it really brightned the mid range for me. There is NO doubt that the car is quicker than before. Its very noticeable and if youre going to get the sport cats and headers, I would highly recommend the Softronic tune to top it off.
Also about the tune...I called and requested that my "sport mode" be always on. I wasnt sure if they had enabled it since I forgot to mention it in my DME file upload to Softronic, so I called and left a message right after I uploaded it. They emailed me back and said it was enabled in the file they sent me. However, if that is the case, the Sport Mode throttle that Softronic applies and the one by Porsche are not alike. The Porsche sport mode throttle is still much more sensitive than the sport mode by Softronic. In other words, when I push the sport mode button I can still feel the difference in the throttle input. This is unfortunate as I was hoping the only difference I would feel would be in the tighter suspension and not in the throttle input.
I will say though the "regular mode" throttle sensitivity is much improved over the sluggish stock version. All in all Softronic has an excellent product. Install was a snap and its nice to have a stock file to reflash when I go to the dealer, and I can do it all myself without having to send out my ECU.
