Ok, cool! Just to confirm, is this part number for the X51 power kit without PSE?

The standard 991.2 Carrera S sold in my country already has Sport Chrono and PSE included. As these are requirement to install X51 kit, I'm thinking it can a nice addition to my car since it's an original Porsche system.

Thanks again!

Just curious. Does this imply ALL engines are software retarded until 10,000km? Only after 10,000km does the engine reach its full output?

I didn't take his comment to mean that the engine was software inhibited. I think it means that the engine components become worn in enough to limit friction losses and maximize power.

Most engines produce their best power with between 5000 and 10,000 miles on them. That's how long it takes for them to wear in/break in. After that they start slowly wearing out.
