Description

APR’s ECU Upgrades are the best dollar-per-horsepower modification one can make to improve engine performance. The upgrades dramatically increase horsepower and torque, making for an exceptionally quicker and more exciting vehicle. This is made possible through APR’s optimization of the factory engine management system to take full advantage of the engine’s capabilities, without needing any end user adjustment. The ECU Upgrades are available with various features and supported octane levels and each stage is compatible with most typical bolt-on modifications. The software is installed to the vehicle’s factory ECU through the OBD-II port, resulting in a clean and headache-free install. Furthermore, for those looking for tuning with a limited powertrain warranty, APR Plus has you covered!

Features:

  • Horsepower – More horsepower throughout the whole rpm band
  • Torque – More torque throughout the whole rpm band
  • Warranty – APR Plus is available, providing a factory term limit matching limited powertrain warranty
  • Stages – Multiple performance levels depending on installed hardware
  • Mode Switching – Switchable power levels and features through Porsche Normal, Sport, and Sport+ profiles
  • Fuel Grades – Multiple octanes from which to choose
  • Acceleration – Accelerate faster with more power and reduced throttle lag
  • Linear Throttle – Pedal maps adjusted for a more linear feel
  • Brake Boosting – Left foot braking or brake boosting added
  • Rev Limiter – Increased redline for higher revving
  • Standing Limiter – Increased standing limiter for higher revving at idle
  • Speed Limiter – Go as fast as you want with the speed limiter out of the way
  • Auto Start/Stop Inversion – Auto Start/Stop defaults to the off position
  • Exhaust Flaps – Enhanced power delivery and drivability through recalibrated exhaust flap actuation
  • Added Safety – Additional safety features and protection modes added
  • Economy – While cruising, or driving normally, your fuel economy may benefit from our optimized calibration
  • Direct Port Programming – Clean and easy install through the OBD II port without removing the ECU
  • Free Updates – Get free updates for life
  • Guarantee – 30 day money back guarantee

Driving Modes, Features, and Safety

Driving Modes – Each upgrade offers a host of improvements beyond power alone. Using Porsche’s Normal, Sport, and Sport Plus modes offers varying levels of output while retaining all of the unique characteristics present in each mode. Sport and Sport plus modes give you full power and torque. Normal mode give you modest increase over stock, but focuses on economy and comfort. We’ve optimized boost, fueling, ignition, cams, and more to achieve greater power and torque in all scenarios.

Features – In Sport Plus mode we’ve reduced turbo lag during reapplication of the throttle by building boost while off the throttle. We have linearized the pedal maps for a more predictable throttle response curve, which works exceptionally well on the track. We’ve enabled left foot braking, and brake boosting. The speed limiter has been removed. We’ve optimized the software to better handle larger wheels without excessive torque interventions. And finally we’ve inverted the start stop functionality so the vehicle starts with this feature disabled.

Safety – With many customers tracking their Porsche, safety is paramount in our calibration strategy. Through the use of extreme datalogging equipment and additional sensors, thermocouples, and transducers, our engineers were able to fully optimize the ECU for advanced safety routines. This includes implementing several routines not enabled from the factory. The entire thermal management system is optimized to reduce engine bay temperature, and reduce intake air temperature, while also implementing advanced protection routines to prevent oil temperature from achieving unsafe levels. The exhaust crackles disable when temperature thresholds are crossed, and are only enabled in sport mode. Next, we help protect the engine from LSPI by preventing the engine from being lugged out in tall gears. We also protect the turbo from damaging compressor surge, and add in turboshaft overspeed protection. We’ve enabled new temperature protection routines to prevent the engine, exhaust, and other components from overheating, and have implemented temperature management strategies that are fully mindful of the platform’s limited fueling capabilities. We’ve optimized the injection strategy to not only deliver a fatter torque curve and better spool, but to reduce the chances of knock, and torque dips. This is also achieved alongside per cylinder ignition advance and fuel trimming.

The APR Stage 1 ECU Upgrade is the first step towards making more power! This simple upgrade requires no engine hardware modifications, and produces 353-378 HP with 303-349 FT-LBS of torque, depending on octane. Gains as high as 45-79 HP and 36-78 FT-LBS of torque are available throughout the power band. To get more power, the vehicle can be outfitted with an upgraded intake, cooling, or exhaust system. No “Stage 2” software is required to use a high flow Race DP exhaust system.

APR Stage 1 is available for 91 AKI, 93 AKI, 100 AKI, and 104 AKI fuel grades in North America, and 95 RON, 98 RON, 104 RON, and 108 RON in the Rest of the World.
