Not many PASM 981s (Non GTS) are there
I can't seem to find many Caymans with PASM and Sport Chrono installed. I'm trying to get one for BGB to do a conversion with but man is it hard finding one. I wanted to put it with a DSC Box and their tractive coilovers. The only ones that seem to have them was the GTS and even then it's like only half of them do. What gives |
Not many. I lucked out when I picked up my 981 CS 6-speed with PASM/SC/PSE here on Rennlist.
|
Then count me in with the lucky ones. My first search on Porsche CPO yielded Cayman with PASM/Sport Chrono/PSE/PTV/6SP. Since buying it 2 months ago, I've been searching for fun and haven't seen another.
|
The sport chrono software can easily be added later, so that option shouldn't be a deal breaker.
Many of the GTS cars were ordered with the X73 sport suspension instead of PASM. Personally, I prefer the X73. |
Yep, I was searching for one for months with similar options, and finally found one with SC/PASM/PTV/PSE and the 18-way seats. I jumped on it :).

Is this true? I believe it to be true for the 987’s but not the 981’s. I believe Porsche even answered this. Do you know where I can get the software???!

Are you looking for manual or pdk. I know of someone who has a pdk with pasm/pse/sc and also already has a dsc installed.
Also, according to suncoast, you cannot retrofit oem sc to a 981. Only a Cobb tune or similar. |
Retrofitting Sport Chrono software does not give full functionality, no launch control and not even sure if you get another button for Sport+ and it's different settings. X73 too rough for me, PASM is much better and a more expensive option for the same price ... soft for daily driving, stiffer when needed.

My '16 981S has 6MT, PSE/PASM but not SC.

Make sure you drive PASM vs non-PASM before deciding it is a must-have option. I've had both versions on 987s, and I consider PASM mandatory for the 987 where I live (I only ever used the comfort setting, which is softer than non-PASM but stiffens in the curves).
However, I was shocked at how nice the ride is in a 981 on 20" wheels without PASM. So I bought a 981 without PASM with 19" wheels and it feels great. |
