So i've been trying to get this to work on my 2007 turbo, but no luck. I've been speaking with copsmot and isysman in the background (thanks).
I bought a new PDK sport design wheel, i.e. the one with paddle shift not buttons, and the correct gen 2 steering module.
I found an indie with a PIWIS 2 v14.75 system (PIWIS v34.00 won't work i tried). They fitted the steering module and steering wheel. Then changed the setting in the PIWIS 2 to PDK.
They could tell the messages were going from the steering wheel to the steering controller, but were not going from the controller to the gearbox as it wouldn't change gears.
Anybody got any other suggestion for what to try before i sell the wheel and controller on eBay (or get a gen 2 turbo, whicher is easier)?
Thanks
Pav
it won't work. they tried using both the old and new module.isysman said:So are they saying it won't work or you have the wrong control module?
That's twice i've tried contacting Suncoast with no reply. think i'll give up on them now.isysman said:Speak to Ryan at Suncoast. They have done many of these retrofits. Incidentally he told me my conversion wouldn't work as they had issues trying to get the 2007 Turbo (Manual) to take the Gen.2 wheel. However ask them if they have completed any Tip 997 Turbos with that wheel. It may be an issue that can be overcome.
Also ask about the control module, if the NA one is the same as the Turbo one on PDK cars.

Did you ever get this working on your 997.1 Turbo tip? I've got all the parts coming (991 wheel, airbag, 997.2 module) and a little concerned that I'm not going to be able to get it to work. Have seen lots of posts from guys in the USA running this setup on tiptronic Turbos however?
