DMS Remap

[Beaky59]

I see quite a few 996 Turbo's having had a DMS remap, Is this a recommended and reliable modification?

Hi - if you read recent threads on 996tt tuning, I would suggest Ken @ Nine Excellence is worth a call...

I'll second that.

Not really what he asked though, DMS generally have a good rep

[puntograle]

Ah sorry! My mistake. I interpreted it as a generic remap question. Scrap previous post.

If you want to start tuning it your wasting money doing a map first.

Otherwise DMS are good if just a map is what you want.

Really? If you don't want to spend a fortune the cheapest bang for buck is remap or remap + exhaust IMHO.

And this likely to be most popular stage 1 approach that most used 996 TT would have

I have a DMS map, it's great and wouldn't go back to standard.

If I were looking for an 'already mapped' car, DMS is one of the few outfits I would be happy to see on the invoice. (I personally think the standard car is quick enough however).

Adam I meant if he is going to start messing about with turbos etc there is zero point in doing a map first then going onto tuning that will require a remap anyway.

If a map is all he ever wants to do (and maybe an exhaust) thank DMS are as good as it gets really.

Fair point sir

My 6TT has the DMS stage 2 conversion, good for a quoted 550bhp and VMax at Brunters of 191 mph (backs up the bhp claim). It ran within 2 mph of that every run too, so no signs of performance drop off.

Google evo review for all you need to know.

Great intel folks, thanks

Anyone had a dms remap on a 997 2s gen1?
Was it worth it?

Thought DMS usually under performs in group tests with other tuners

Don't bring me into this mate, got nothing to say on this topic.... differences of approach in tuning have been done to death here already.
