We have already shared the Porsche Macan Turbo 3.6L and Porsche Panamera S 3.0L tuning box installs, so now we have pictures and video for the Macan S 3.0L Turbo. The Panamera and Macan S have the identical engine. There are a couple things to make sure of when you are installing the Tuning Box Kit.
- You must have a solid power source. Use the factory positive and negative terminals.
- The connectors for boost, manifold, and camshaft are factory Bosch connectors. They have a flat on both the male and female ends that must line up. Make sure these are the same orientation and the connectors are all the way plugged in.
- It is recommended to use the USA drivers side camshaft sensor instead of the PDF instructions USA passenger side sensor. Watch video for explanation.
- Make sure when you are installing and unplugging sensors that the car is completely off or it will throw codes.

Dan do you have pics of this install for a 2016 cayenne s?
Its the same engine so should be identical even with the 3.6. Here are some photos from a customer with the GTS 3.6L https://www.vrtuned.com/blog/porsche-cayenne-gts-3-6l-turbo-tuning-box-installed/
Hi Dan,
Where did you source that bolt on top of the positive battery terminal for the power connection? Generic? Size?
You can find a bolt at any local hardware store or automotive parts shop. Believe it was an M8 bolt, but I would check the threading beforehand.
