Scott1967 Posted May 26, 2019 Share Posted May 26, 2019 hi all I’m pondering on the idea of either a remap or trying one of the boost type chips that plug into the throttle has anyone had experience of either ? I’m driving a 2006 2.7 987.1 Carnewal gt exhaust k & n air filter Scott Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Dougle_turbo Posted May 27, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted May 27, 2019 Hi Scott, I've had both a remap and run a Sprint throttle booster. Link to my thread below: My car is running a few modifications though, so the outcome won't not be the same. I went to DMS Automotive near Southhampton for the remap. The car is mapped on the rolling road and I highly recommend them. The throttle booster certainly makes the car feel more urgent, but this is done by changing how quickly the throttle responds and effectively changing the throttle position. I run mine in the middle setting most of the time, it definitely helps when heel and toeing on track (and I NEED help!). So I get used to the throttle response in all conditions I keep the car in the middle setting on the road as well. Bang for buck I think the sprint booster is the way to go. At £100 odd quid they aren't expensive, easy to install and you will feel a difference. (I'm assuming you don't have sport chrono?) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott1967 Posted June 30, 2019 Author Share Posted June 30, 2019 Update dynoremaps 21 bhp and 18 nm So I’m really pleased with the results the acceleration is smoother and constant with no flat spots I’m going to leave the throttle booster for now but I’m not ruling it out in the future scott 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you have before and after graphs available to see ? Bet you notice a huge difference in driveability on the road....

Craiglm68 Posted July 22, 2019 Share Posted July 22, 2019 Good result. Are they "at the wheel" numbers, or flywheel (ie a multiplier applied)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott1967 Posted July 22, 2019 Author Share Posted July 22, 2019 At the wheel 👍🏻 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott1967 Posted July 22, 2019 Author Share Posted July 22, 2019 Ah but I’m driving a 2.7 not a 3.4s it cost me £240 for the remap 👍🏻🤓 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liongolfer Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 Nice! Great returns on a NA. I didn't think so much was left on the table. With the increase, still within the boundaries of the engine and gearbox? I'm thinking of remapping my CS PDK as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it was on a DynoJet I would believe it.....sorry Dougle! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
