Default APR tuned Cayman GT

I have always said I wanted to wait until APR released the software for the 987 Cayman S. I have the Audi Stage 3 kit and love the EMCS options. (being able to switch programs on the fly via cruise control)





I went to NGP RACING an APR distributor in my area and purchased the software monday.







I love the way APR has all of these options.

Stock Program - basically stock settings dealer cannot detect the changes, car drive like the normal beast it is.

Chipped Program (91 or 93 octane)* - really wakes up the car, the butt dyno feels the difference at 2500RPM My car will be dynoed this friday, I will post the graphs

Valet Program - car cannot rev over like 2500RPM so you cant really drive over 20MPH, this is good for leaving your car somewhere that you dont want anyone to drive it off for a "test drive"

Race Program (100 or 104 octane)* - for at the track, HP increases will be more significant obviously since the car is tuned for higher octane.

Security Lock Out Feature - if someone knows how to use APR software and wants to switch between programs they cant.

Fault Code Erase and Throttle Body Alignment - when the car starts you run this to set the idle, it basically will tune your car depending on ambient temps, atmosphere where your car is. Also with Fault code erase you can clear that CEL on the fly.

Anti-Theft System - even with the key you cant start the car without entering a 4 digit code into the car via cruise control.

I am very impressed with the power difference. The car stills maintains the smooth acceleration, not rough like other software I've tried. The fact that you can switch it on and off by turning the car key, pressing the cruise control. It lets you see the tuning difference right there. I have a video of how it works, swiching from stock to 93 program. stock blinks once per second, 93 twice, 100 three times, etc.



Check out the APR site it has all of the information:
APR - High Performance Development for Porsche® Vehicles

last two runs had the highest temps and still had the most HP increase, thats some good software
8HP-91deg with the APR software the more you let the car run between programs the better it adapts, the better the performance gains are...




Still Have to get the Full APR exhaust, software update. My car must be detuned from the factory. There have been CS that put down anywhere from 218-286 to the wheels on dynos.
