Replying to: s4to911 (Jul 13, 2005 4:44 pm) I am now looking for a 2006 Carrera S. I chipped my S4 at 5000 miles,it now has only 40,000 miles,and I was wondering what differences you have noticed between the two cars in real world driving.The S4 has so much low end torque from about 1500 to 5500 RPM,that you can have plenty of fun before reaching 80 MPH.Thanks. |

I have a 2005 911 S with 6000 miles. My service light has come on reminding me that service needs to be done in 15 days! Are the service intervals based on time or miles, or both. Is it really necessary to have the service done considering the car has low miles. I realize that the car is four years old. Comments.

Have a Stock 911 Targa with 85K. DME is corroded badly must be replaced but I freak at the idea of buying this from a dealer.....or from a pirate! I really need any advice offered as to who to go to for this replacement. Also replacing stock muffler with a tuned system.....and wish to use a mildly more aggressive chip in DME to go with the enhanced breathing..Your thought? Thanks-

Replying to: old911 (Jul 05, 2009 8:08 am) AUTOMATION OR PELICAN PARTS to see if they might supply you with a rebuilt DME or steer you to a good reliable supplier. You might also think about joining the Porsche Club of America. I'm not a big fan of chipping this model Porsche because I don't think you'll see much effect on a street car with emissions controls in place--they may defeat most of the chip's new mapping attempts. The exhaust will probably give you a little boost and that IMO is money better spent. Unless you go balls out and address the entire engine, from where the air and fuel goes in, to the cylinder heads, engine internals and exhaust, I think you are basicallly only messing with one part of a long tube of events so to speak. Without independent dyno testing, all chip claims are baseless in my opinion. Also some engine management systems are more responsive to chipping than others. Do more research before you spend chip money is all I'm saying. The PCA would be a great source of feedback.
