Why Maryland customers mail in porsche alarm / immobilizer box clone

Maryland has roughly 4.2 million registered vehicles, and trucks, SUVs & imports make up much of what Baltimore-area shops and owners mail us.

Maryland FAQ

Common questions from customers shipping from Maryland.

How long does shipping take from Maryland to your Arlington TX workshop?
USPS Priority Mail from Baltimore, MD reaches our Arlington workshop in about 3 business days. USPS Priority routes northeast through the Mid-Atlantic network; about 3 days. We start work the same day your module arrives and typically ship back next business day at the return speed you chose at checkout.

Do you accept porsche alarm / immobilizer box clone modules from Maryland?
Yes — we receive modules from Baltimore, Columbia, Germantown, Silver Spring and the rest of Maryland regularly. With about 4.2 million registered vehicles statewide, trucks, SUVs & imports are the bulk of what we see from Maryland.
Is there a porsche alarm / immobilizer box clone shop in Baltimore I should use instead?
Most Baltimore shops don't keep the bench equipment for porsche alarm / immobilizer box clone — they'd forward the module to a specialist anyway, which adds a markup and a middleman. Going direct to us is usually faster and cheaper. Cross-country northeast — about 3 days each way.
Does Maryland vehicle inspection or emissions testing affect this service?
Maryland requires a safety inspection at point of sale or transfer, plus a biennial VEIP emissions test in most counties. Our service is bench module programming only — you remain responsible for your vehicle's compliance with all Maryland and federal requirements.
Do you supply the donor unit?
No — you source a used donor from eBay, a salvage yard, or a Porsche parts recycler, and we verify compatibility before you buy or ship. Match the Porsche part number on the label as closely as possible; early and late 986 units differ, and the label decides rather than the model year. Send us the listing photos plus your VIN and a technician confirms the pair at no charge.
Should I send the engine ECU too?
Often, yes. On the 996 and 986 the alarm box and the DME are married to each other, so a car that has had one of them replaced with a second-hand unit will not start until they agree again. If you have swapped either module, or you are not certain which one failed, tell us — our Porsche DME / engine ECU clone service covers the engine side and the two are frequently ordered together so you only ship once.
