APR - Performance TCU Software - 7 Speed PDK2 - Porsche Panamera (971) (4.0T)

Unleash the Full Potential of Your Panamera! Transform your driving experience with the APR Transmission Control Unit (TCU) Upgrade for the Porsche PDK2 transmission found in the Panamera (971) 4.0T platform. This upgrade unlocks massive performance gains, optimizes drivability, and gives you more control over your transmission's behavior to match your driving style. Increased Torque Capacity The factory PDK2 transmission restricts torque to protect itself, but APR's recalibration safely raises those limits. We increase clutch clamping pressure to handle significantly higher output, supporting our high-torque ECU upgrades. With race fuel and our ECU/TCU pairing, expect gains up to +63 lb-ft of torque and +43 horsepower at all four wheels! Optimized Shift Points Shift mapping is recalibrated to match the Panamera's new, higher power output. The result: quicker acceleration, smarter gear changes, and more exhilarating performance across the entire rev range. Enhanced Launch Control We improve launch performance by changing the factory launch RPM and optimizing torque delivery during launches. Expect sharper, more aggressive launches with 0-60 mph times as quick as 2.7 seconds, even on all-season tires! Plus, the factory dashboard now displays the "Launch Control Active" message when engaged. Idle Creep (Selectable On/Off) From the factory, the Panamera creeps forward at idle. With APR's TCU Upgrade, you have the chose to retain the creep mode for smooth stop-and-go driving or disable creep mode for full control over movement with the throttle pedal as preferred by purists. Neutral by Paddles (Selectable On/Off) With this feature activated, simultaneously pulling both paddles places the transmission into Neutral. Pulling again re-engages the previous gear which is perfect for special driving scenarios. (Note: This feature cannot be paired with Clutch Kick.) Clutch Kick (Selectable On/Off) Inspired by high-end 911 behavior, Clutch Kick enables aggressive drivetrain control. Pulling both paddles momentarily opens the clutches, allowing you to break traction for advanced driving maneuvers like controlled oversteer. This is only recommended only for skilled drivers in low-grip conditions. (Note: Neutral by Paddles must be disabled to activate Clutch Kick.) Why Choose APR? APR's engineering expertise ensures every change is precision-calibrated for safety, reliability, and maximum performance. Our ECU and TCU tunes work together as a system to deliver maximum performance. Whether you're chasing faster times at the track or simply wanting sharper, more connected driving every day, the APR TCU Upgrade delivers. Experience your Panamera the way it was meant to be driven. Go APR! PLEASE NOTE: The PDK2 module must be removed from the vehicle and sent to APR for unlock and flashing. It is located under the carpet on the rear shelf behind the driver's seat.
