If you search for Wendland on the site it will give you some information. Wendland Tuning are one of the most renown Porsche tuners in Germany.



I installed Stage 1 of the Wendland Kits: Motronic Changes and an sport exhaust system for approx. USD 4'500.



Regards

Dario

FYI - That is estimated crank HP, not wheel HP.

Congratulations Dario! I am very happy to see your positive comments on the Wendland software. I am myself considering that, based on the good testing comments the upgrade has received.


To all others, again, absolute dyno numbers are not too important, it is the difference before and after tuning that matters.


Dario, could you perhaps describe the exhaust changes and if possible post some pictures, I would really appreciate it. Thanks!

Thanks wurlie.



Sport exhaust with integrated catalytic converters, excl. manifold and the first converters which would be the next step to modify to allow even more airflow and which would bring additional 5-7 HP and increase performance to about 330 - 332 HP. That would cost an additional USD 3500. The problem with Wendland, it's so good you never get enough. Saying goodbye Karl Heinz Wendland, one of the Wendland Brothers, said to me smilingly: See you in 6-7 weeks for the next mods. He might be right...[img]/fckeditor/editor/images/smiley/MWPX/wink_smile.gif[/img]



By the way, I combined the wendland sport exhaust with the original Cayman Tequipment dual-tube tailpipes so that you can't see anything but these from the outside.



Cheers

Dario

Too bad Wendland does not have a US distributor. looks very credible from their website.
