How to Tune Your Porsche 992 911 with APR

Step-by-step ECU flashing guide, map selection, dyno validation, and reliability tips.

Watch: Complete Walkthrough

Cinematic workshop setup for APR tuning on a 992 911.

Why Tuning the 992 Matters

The Porsche 992 911 is exceptionally capable, but factory calibration leaves performance on the table. With APR’s platform-specific calibration, you can safely increase horsepower and torque, sharpen throttle response, and tailor the car to your driving style.

  • Dyno-proven gains with platform-matched calibrations.
  • Improved pedal mapping and mid-range response.
  • Maps for stock or lightly modified cars (intake/exhaust/fuel).

What You’ll Learn From the Video

Hardware & Software Setup

See how the APR interface connects to the 992’s OBD-II and how to run the software on your laptop.

Baseline & Validation

Establish a stock baseline, then validate with logging or dyno pulls after the flash.

Map Selection

Choose the right stage for your fuel and mods—stock, intake/exhaust, or more advanced packages.

Flashing Workflow

Follow a clean, interruption-free write procedure, then verify no DTCs and road-test.

Step-by-Step: Safe ECU Flashing (Quick How-To)

  1. Prep the car: Healthy battery, charger connected, stable internet for licensing.
  2. Connect APR hardware: Interface to OBD-II, then to your laptop.
  3. Backup stock file: Read and save the original ECU map.
  4. Select the map: Choose fuel grade and stage that match your setup.
  5. Flash the ECU: Follow prompts; do not interrupt power.
  6. Validate: Clear DTCs, test drive, and (ideally) dyno/log to confirm results.
Reliability Note: Added power increases thermal load. Keep fluids fresh, ensure cooling is healthy, and monitor key parameters.

Pro Tips for Reliability

  • Use high-quality fuel that matches your selected map.
  • Inspect plugs/coils; weak ignition shows up fast on tuned cars.
  • Watch IATs and oil temps during hard use or summer heat.
  • Track days? Upgrade pads/tires to match the extra power.
  • Understand regional compliance and warranty implications.

FAQ

Will tuning void my warranty?

Tuning can affect coverage depending on your dealer and region. Consult your service advisor before flashing.

Do I need supporting mods?

Not strictly, but an intake, exhaust, and healthy cooling system improve consistency as power increases.

Can I revert to stock?

Yes—save your OEM map before flashing so you can re-install it later with the same interface.

Dispute Resolution and Binding Arbitration.

YOU AND THE COMPANY ARE AGREEING TO GIVE UP ANY RIGHTS TO LITIGATE CLAIMS IN A COURT OR BEFORE A JURY, OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION WITH RESPECT TO A CLAIM. OTHER RIGHTS THAT YOU WOULD HAVE IF YOU WENT TO COURT MAY ALSO BE UNAVAILABLE OR MAY BE LIMITED IN ARBITRATION.

ANY CLAIM, DISPUTE OR CONTROVERSY (WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE, WHETHER PRE-EXISTING, PRESENT OR FUTURE, AND INCLUDING STATUTORY, CONSUMER PROTECTION, COMMON LAW, INTENTIONAL TORT, INJUNCTIVE AND EQUITABLE CLAIMS) BETWEEN YOU AND US ARISING FROM OR RELATING IN ANY WAY TO YOUR PURCHASE OF PRODUCTS OR SERVICES THROUGH THE SITE, WILL BE RESOLVED EXCLUSIVELY AND FINALLY BY BINDING ARBITRATION.

The arbitration will be administered by the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") in accordance with the Consumer Arbitration Rules (the "AAA Rules") then in effect, except as modified by this Section 14. (The AAA Rules are available at www.adr.org/arb_med or by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879.) The Federal Arbitration Act will govern the interpretation and enforcement of this section.

The arbitrator will have exclusive authority to resolve any dispute relating to arbitrability and/or enforceability of this arbitration provision, including any unconscionability challenge or any other challenge that the arbitration provision or the agreement is void, voidable, or otherwise invalid. The arbitrator will be empowered to grant whatever relief would be available in court under law or in equity. Any award of the arbitrator(s) will be final and binding on each of the parties, and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction.

You may elect to pursue your claim in small-claims court rather than arbitration if you provide us with written notice of your intention do so within 60 days of your purchase. The arbitration or small-claims court proceeding will be limited solely to your individual dispute or controversy.

You agree to an arbitration on an individual basis. In any dispute, NEITHER YOU NOR THE COMPANY WILL BE ENTITLED TO JOIN OR CONSOLIDATE CLAIMS BY OR AGAINST OTHER CUSTOMERS IN COURT OR IN ARBITRATION OR OTHERWISE PARTICIPATE IN ANY CLAIM AS A CLASS REPRESENTATIVE, CLASS MEMBER OR IN A PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL CAPACITY. The arbitral tribunal may not consolidate more than one person's claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding. The arbitral tribunal has no power to consider the enforceability of this class arbitration waiver and any challenge to the class arbitration waiver may only be raised in a court of competent jurisdiction.

If any provision of this arbitration agreement is found unenforceable, the unenforceable provision will be severed and the remaining arbitration terms will be enforced.

Assignment. You will not assign any of your rights or delegate any of your obligations under these Terms without our prior written consent. Any purported assignment or delegation in violation of this Section 15 is null and void. No assignment or delegation relieves you of any of your obligations under these Terms.

No Waivers. The failure by us to enforce any right or provision of these Terms will not constitute a waiver of future enforcement of that right or provision. The waiver of any right or provision will be effective only if in writing and signed by a duly authorized representative of the Company.

No Third-Party Beneficiaries. These Terms do not and are not intended to confer any rights or remedies upon any person or entity other than you.

Notices.

To You. We may provide any notice to you under these Terms by: (i) sending a message to the email address you provide or (ii) by posting to the Site. Notices sent by email will be effective when we send the email and notices we provide by posting will be effective upon posting. It is your responsibility to keep your email address current.

To Us. To give us notice under these Terms, you must contact us by either (i) using the “Contact Us” form provided at the Site (https://www.kiesmotorsports.com/contact), or (ii) contacting us by email at info@kiesmotorsports.com. We may update the method for notices to us by posting a notice on the Site. Notices provided by electronic transmission will be effective one business day after they are sent.

Severability. If any provision of these Terms is invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable, then that provision will be deemed severed from these Terms and will not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining provisions of these Terms.

Entire Agreement. These Term, together with any order conformation or invoice we issue to you, will be deemed the final and integrated agreement between you and us on the matters contained in these Terms.
