The Porsche 718 Cayman T features a 300-hp turbocharged 2.0-liter flat-four and six-speed manual transmission turbocharged engine, which can be easily upgraded for even more performance! By using the VRTuned hand held device we're able to easily flash the ECU and drastically improve the Horsepower and Torque from the 2.0T engine.
Using our Mustang AWD here in Arizona running 91 octane with 90+ degree weather, we were able to squeeze an additional 50 Ft/lbs of torque and 45 Horsepower from this 2020 Porsche Cayman T! Overall this car is a blast to drive and now with the improved performance from the VRTuned ECU Flash its even better!

hoping to see more videos, i love 4 cylinder engines.. and very interest in one cayman 718 T
Stay tuned!
Awesome video looking at one of these thanks!
Let us know if there is anything that we can assist
Last manual was Mk6 Golf R, evolved to DSG, hard debate between the two for me ... but a Cayman T manual with a tune on track day sounds like a Gr8 time
It definitely is! Thanks for watching!
I'm 21, have a 2019 Civic Si. Obsessed with the Cayman S right now and thinking about buying one next month.
That's awesome, definitely a great car!
I saw other tuners had managed to flatten out the massive dip in the middle of the range (Apparently the ECU is pulling power for some reason so they had to account for it). Is that something you are able to account for?
I can only imagine the numbers you could get out of the Cayman S 2.5 liter! I'm deciding on which Cayman to buy...this helps, thanks!
Awesome, thanks for watching!
here is the 2.5 tune we did a couple years ago th-cam.com/video/QPxJJX-jcKU/w-d-xo.html
@@vivid_racing I live in California, but after I purchase my car maybe I'll take a drive to Arizona and have you guys do my tune!
FYI: Factory Diag (Piwis3) allows you to put the PSM into "rolling road mode".. no need for a 4wh dyno.
If you have one…
I'm from the UK... literally EVERYONE here knows how ti drive a manual. Whether you're 17 years old or 70 lol that said I just picked up a 718 Cayman S a week ago with PDK. amazing car! can't wait to get the APR stage 1 tune on it (Even though stock its an animal).
Awesome! Thanks for watching!
718 Base & a Manual is my ride. Great drivers car
Awesome video displaying the change in power, that’s what really important. No frills no BS and straight to the point! Btw, I’m 22 and the last manual car I’ve owned was an E46 M3 I sold last winter, I learned how to drive stick when I was 16 in a 94 NA Miata :D
We appreciate it! M3's are sick and that's an awesome way to learn! Thanks for watching!
@@vivid_racing Thanks for the video! I’m in the market for a cayman 2.0T and this video showcasing the manual just put this car on my watchlist! Thanks again. Imma sub
Wow Dude congratulations
Great vid! Thanks so much for the great info. I have a ‘20 GT4 and love the new T, so sweet to be able to get so much power out of just a tune, that’s the practicality of a turbo compared to my flat-6. When everything is electric in 10 years, people will yearn for how great the turbo flat 4s in ‘the old cars’ sound, lol.
We appreciate it! And that sound will never get old 🤣
As I own 718 Cayman T myself I need to ask: does the acceleration feel significantly better? What would be 0-62mph time difference? Or maybe even 0-124mph? No real numbers needed just curious about the feeeeeeliiing.... haha! :-) Great video by the way!!!
Unfortunately, we didn't get the chance to record any 0-60 data. The acceleration is incredible after the tune though. More importantly the throttle response is much more snappy which feels amazing when going wide open throttle.
I just turned 24 a week ago and I learned how to drive stick on my buddies old tricked out NA miata. Now I just brought my first true car and it’s a r53 Mini Cooper S.😏manual enthusiasts will live on.
2010 mini cooper s 6sp, 2008 audi r8 6sp, 1995 lexus sc300 5sp, 1993.5 infiniti g20 5sp, 1997 nissan premiere 5sp, etc.
I’m 25!! I have a boxster that’s pdk BUT my 2004 Mercedes c230 kompressor is a 6 speed manual!
Awesome! Thanks for watching!
Does it requires run in after tuning is done?
Was that the agency power exhaust? Cant tell from video if it’s much better than the PSE the car had.
Unfortunately AP transitioned from car parts to UTV parts but we have very similar products if you're interested send us an email at sales@vividracing.com for more info!
I test drove a 718 a few weeks ago and it is probably just as good as the 911. Side question how are you getting the front rollers to spin?
We put our dyno in awd mode
Save the manuals!!!!
🙌🏼
I drive a 7.3 diesel manual but boy I love manual cars.
Any issues with the engine or else after the tune? Change of consumption? Oil? Temperature?
Have a 718 boxster thinking to tune it but afraid about the consequences afterwards.
And what is the best tune for a 718?
Thanks for your information
Absolutely no issues
what about turbo lag. I hear it doesnt get going until about 2500 rpm in stock, is there less lag with this tune. interesting vid.d
Yes, there is slightly less lag with the tune installed!
The only manual in our fleet right now is our Beetle Turbo S 6 speed, but I prefer driving manual most of the time
Nothing beats the feeling of having that third pedal and having complete control over what gear you are in.
The power dip just after 5k is not ideal. I'm guessing that's a hardware restriction from the way the turbo delivers it's power and becomes more obvious when the boost is turned up?
The dip is occurring because the charge temps are increasing at that RPM due to it being over 105ºF in the dyno room. The car is pulling timing back when it sees a charge temp that high. Upgrading the cooling system would eliminate this all together.
What cooking system upgrades are you referring to? Are they available aftermarket?
@@vivid_racing, do I understand correctly that the dip is due to the capacity of the intercooler?
If so, does that mean that the output after the dip is also being held back by high charge temps?
It would be interesting to see what results you'd get with cooler ambient temps, or a bigger/better intercooler.
Perhaps do you know why iafter a stage 1 tune i hear a whistle sound from the car? thanks
Hi! We do not. We recommend taking it to the nearest shop & have it diagnosed!
totally new to tuning...how much does something like this cost? Also how long does it take to do something like this?
Check out the link in description to the product page with all info
It depends where you are, most cars are manual in the UK
The manual is standard on all the 718’s, including the Base 718 Cayman that’s starts $10,000 below the “T”. As you know the most track focused Cayman is the GT4. The GTS is better equipped than a T and has the flat six cylinder engine. The of course the prices for the GTS and GT4 are much higher. $74k; $90knfor GTS and $100k
The best choice for street and track use is the GTS Cayman. It’s got all the performance parts of the GT4 and the T plus a six cylinder and it’s at least $10k less than GT4.
Thanks for all the info! We appreciate you watching!
need to upgrade Turbo as well!
maybe soon 🙊
Hey long time no see! This is Jay Lee (Bruce Lee now), the one who sold your partner my Gallardo from Irvine, CA. The 45whp gain was with the mufflers changed too or just the ECU flash? Also how much is it and the final gain (HP)?
hey there! Flash and supporting mods.
Is this a generic ECU flash you bought for this car and flashed on to the ECU? Or do you actually custom-tune the vehicle?
Each file is created specifically for the software you read out. No such thing as generic.
@@vivid_racing Thank you. Are there any mods you'd recommend before this to get even more? For example are there intake or exhaust restrictions? I looked on your website but couldn't see anything on the product page.
is this your inhouse tune? or do you get the tune from some one else for e.g apr ? etc
This is ours that is why it says VRTuned 😁
@@vivid_racing got it thanks ..so you have in house engineers who write the code?
Not sure what you are trying to dig up 🤷🏼♂️. If you need help with a tune you can contact our VRTuned support. Define in-house in 2021… Rhetorical
My current manual is a MK2. Audi TT RS
Great car 👍
All 3 of my kids are under 22. All drive manuals, daughter included.
On that dip in power, this looks like the knock strategy to me.
This is obviously something that needs to be corrected as part of this performance upgrade.
If it's charge temps at the upper limit of the turbo why doesn't it fall over there?
Could it be a fuel rail resonance at that rpm causing a pressure problem and temporarily leaning out the mix.
I'd like to see if anyone has spent some time looking closer at this issue.
It could be a multitude of things, but the temps here are not always friendly in the dyno room.
Is it safe a such increase of power on a that small turbo charged engine? I m getting my new 718T next week and wondering if I ll be brave enough to tune it!
Absolutely it is
@@vivid_racing may I ask then why Porsche does not do it right away if they can sell a car with 50 BHP more than the current tune? They could maybe gain some market shares since people may step back from that model because they find it too low in HP vs other cars with similar price tag and being more powerful.
To meet epa, mpg, general customer standards. This is what makes the aftermarket a billion dollar industry.
@@vivid_racing appreciate you took the time to answer. Nice channel btw! Take care
I got the 718 Cayman T and to be fair stock is already more than enough :-) even if I'd like to tune it a bit...
First car was a 2015 golf gti (manual). Current car is a 2017 Golf R (Manual). Long live the manual!!!!
M235i FBO with MHD tune, manual all the way
Good choice! 🔥
Funny how you said people don't know how to drive manual, then you put it in Reverse and shown going forward.
It was a prank, late April fools. Thank you for watching!
@@vivid_racing Good one 😄👍
no soft limiter? sounds like so
Stock rev limit!
How much does this process cost?
Link in description
The previous turbo build doesn't look like a 981 to me. maybe a 987?
You are right
How much to do this tune?
Drop us an email tuning@vividracing.com
Bro said younger ppl dont know how to drive a manual, and then put the car in reverse when he wanted 1st gear
warranty concerns???
Porsche encourages it's owners to go out and race. Lol Porsche isn't Toyota lol
Im 18 driving a manual transmission 2013 camaro
Stud!
Is it just me or the exhaust tips of that aftermarket exhaust in the last few seconds of the video are moving up/down way too much?
Just you as that is the movement of the entire engine
Sounds like ma sg5 Forester and I have never driven an automatic manuals are cheaper here and easier to find. Also under 25
We do hear a slight tone of Forester, but we still think it sounds great! Thanks for watching.
Thats really poor my cayman t ended up just short of 400 bhp thanks to dms uk
Dyno numbers don’t matter what matters is the gains. Dynos all read different as well as outside temp, fuel, and other factors
Im 16 years old and i drive a manuel car
Awesome, keep the manuals alive! Thanks for watching.
Most people under the age of 25 won’t know how to drive a manual or get the Metal Gear reference.
#savethemanuals 😂
The only functioning air intake is the one on the drivers side.
These cars are all insanely expensive now, no way is a cayman s worth 90k,,,,,,
91 octane. You do have crap petrol (gas) in the good ol USA
West Coast is usually 91 octane and midwest to east coast is 93oct
@@vivid_racing Pah. We get 99 here in Great Britain.
@@fasthracing You get 99 ron which is about 94-95 octane.
I could not do a 4 banger in a Porsche no matter how quick it is
Thanks for watching!
C7 Corvette Z51 7 speed manual transmission. Yes I know what a stick is
A completely fake video! Think it's not, leave a comment below to tell me why not.
Ummmm I was there
@@vivid_racing lol hoist with your own retard
dude, the camera 2” from your nose is not a good look. Nobody wants to count nose hairs when watching a video like this
Yeah, lets put a manual on atrack based car which is al about being the fastest it can be on a track, a manual will sure help with that.
Sometimes it's just about having fun
Always the same answer like a pdk aint fun, I like to have fun and be fast actualy going for times. It can be combined you know.@@vivid_racing
