I know it sounds a little too simple, but as long as there aren't any actual changes to the vehicle, shouldn't you just be able to take it in to your dealer and have him update it? I'm probably crazy but...
Very rarely are things like that in "software". The software might be different, but the main gain is usually in a change of engine design, gear ratios, or something like putting a plastic cover underneath the engine bay for better aerodynamics.
