Hello guys, I finally got all the current modification done yesterday! my CS is changing a tiger!!!
I need to specially thanks to Scott from Softronic great product and excellent services, Alex from Sharkwerk and Allen from Motordrive.
I am ready to track end of Aug!!

Very Well Done - Let us know exactly what all the modifications were!
We can tell: Race Plenum / Software, Lightweight Flywheel, ATB/LSD - Did you change the suspension?
Plenum
The plenum is the piece that goes between the Cayman throttle body and the intake runners. The factory piece is a long black plastic tube with a divider down the middle. There are aftermarket replacements which are designed to allow the air to flow easier/faster into the engine and increase horsepower and torque.
LSD - Limited Slip Differential
A limited slip differential (LSD) is a modified or derived type of differential gear arrangement that allows for some difference in rotational velocity of the output shafts, but does not allow the difference in speed to increase beyond a preset amount. In an automobile, such limited slip differentials are sometimes used in place of a standard differential, where they convey certain dynamic advantages, at the expense of greater complexity.
The main advantage of a limited slip differential is found by considering the case of a standard (or "open") differential where one wheel has no contact with the ground at all. In such a case, the contacting wheel will remain stationary, and the non-contacting wheel will rotate freely– the torque transmitted will be equal at both wheels, but will not exceed the threshold of torque needed to move the vehicle, thus the vehicle will remain stationary. In everyday use on typical roads, such a situation is very unlikely, and so a normal differential suffices. For more demanding use however, such as driving off-road, or for high performance vehicles, such a state of affairs is undesirable, and the LSD can be employed to deal with it. By limiting the velocity difference between a pair of driven wheels, useful torque can be transmitted as long as there is some friction available on at least one of the wheels.

With an ordinary open differential, a lot of precious power is wasted during wheel spin under acceleration. This happens because the open differential shifts power to the wheel with less grip, along the path of least resistance. The torque capacity of the TBD/ATB unit is increased or decreased by varying the helix and pressure angles of the gear teeth. The operation is automatic and the unit is a direct replacement with the stock differential. There are no clutch plates as in more conventional limited-slip designs.
The Torque Biasing Differential or A.T.B., however, does just the opposite. It senses which wheel has better grip, and biases the power to that wheel. It does this smoothly and constantly, and without ever completely removing power from the other wheel. In drag-race style, straight-line acceleration runs, this results in a close to ideal 50/50 power split to both drive wheels, resulting in essentially twice the grip of an ordinary differential.

I had Fabspeed header, exchaust, BMC filter, PSS9 suspension, Front Brembo Break, H&R Sway bar, UDP, Full Strosek Body kit and 19 inch Strosek Rim with Corsa tires, Steering wheel last year! But I felt the car was lossing power till last week.
I got the plenum and flash, flywheel as well as the ATB (LSD) done last weekend. But the plenum and flash really make my car different in power, the flywheel helps me get up faster, and the ATB helps me a lot in corner, I could feel the car can push out at corner!
Even my wife can feel and hear the car is gaining more powder!
This site is great!!!
