My contact who is one, if not the largest Cobb dealer (for Porsche), said there is no soldering just some pin managment (whatever that means). He said the DME is silicon connected but it peels with no flex on the cover and resticks with no visual effects.
Thanks Vic...PIN management means a physical change - which I am hoping can be put back. I am getting modding averse in my older age I guess lol. I just don't want the headache.

Dang M5 is an OverAchiever.
I will say that on my other track - not same day being fair but same time of season - a Turbo S ran a 10-6 and 10.7 to my 10.9. Now I have the 1.7x tire 60'. So in theory I am at least a 10.8. So 1-2 tenths from the CP. MPH was 131-133 MPH for the Turbo S to my 129.5. I would say the tuned M5 will easily beat stock Turbo S performance. That said - tune on the Porsches are into the low low 10's and even high 9's at 135-137 MPH. My buddy is stock housing but with the GT2RS turbos. He is hoping for a 9.6-9.7 at 143ish MPH.

EDIT: Oh and congrats General.

He's about to race Brooks from Dragtimes in his 720S...
