now I am confused.
my T has sport chrono with the dash clock precision app and Sport and SPort+
a T without the dashclock has SC but no precision app, but it also has sport and sport + right?
does a T without Sport Chrono not have Sport+
and can rev matching be disabled if traction control is off?
I'll let someone without a wart weigh-in, but that is my understanding. Our cars have everything a SC car does, minus the clock and app, and PADM (which you could not option, period). If you paid a couple hundred you got the clock and the app back. We all have the steering wheel switch for modes and we all get rev matching off when we switch PASM off.
I did not mean Sport+ by + above, I meant adding the clock/app gets you back to SC. Sorry for the confusion.

Maybe the confusion is coming from the use of SC+ and SC-?
SC=Sport Chrono. SC- in this case is the special brand of Sport Chrono in the T without clock and track precision app. SC+ is Sport Chrono in the T with the clock and app.
All Ts have Normal, Sport, and Sport + as a function Sport Chrono. SC+ and SC- are just the variations thereof.

there's no such thing as a T without Sport Chrono. Sport Chrono is normally a circa $2,000 option on other Porsche's. On the T the "option" is the dash clock/PTPA, which, as others have mentioned, sucks. so basically, you're buying a clock.

Well, sorta...
And what I tried, unsuccessfully, to originally talk about above. QR5 = Sport Chrono (SC), which as you also point out, is the addition of the clock and the app on the T. And yes, even without it, we have many of the normal SC features, but technically it's not the same as the other Porsches SC, because it doesn't come with PADM.
You may come across a LONG back and forth on this one, as many of us were told completely different things by our different reps, service techs, etc. concerning the mounts. Alex C eventually proved the case. We have static mounts, and they are not the same part number as in the GT cars. They are, however in my case having had failures with the dynamic mounts before, superior to PADM IMO. I'll take the firmer ride for more peace of mind. Some guys have replaced them with even better aftermarket static love mounts and love the ride even more...

no. that's not accurate exactly. the mounts aren't included with sport chrono automatically, i.e. a macan with sport chrono doesn't have dynamic mounts, or countless other porsche's. that's a GT car thing that people thought was inherited by the T, but as you say, it wasn't. but dynamic mounts aren't a feature of sport chrono.

Yeah, silly me. When I said Porsches I meant real Porsches...
Completely agree with S S and Norge911, no dynamic engine mounts for the T, but not necessary either. The dynamic engine mounts are mostly for comfort, in the case of the T they are fixed, which gives you maximum performance.
Don't recall seeing these posted, and now the world has moved on this info is harder and harder to find. This stuff may prove useful to some in the future:

So, I am starting to investigate a lighter set of aftermarket wheels for some Cup 2s for the track... I'd like to keep to the OEM size, width and offset (so that I can move my tires between the different sets, and don't have to run spacers for track wheels). So, I am looking for:
Size: Carrera / Carrera S / Carrera T Front - 8.5 x 20 ET 49 - 245/35 ZR 20 Rear - 11.5 x 20 ET 76 - 305/30 ZR 20
Most of the wheel discussion around our T's has been the winter set. It's been frustrating to find a match of width and offsets on tire rack. The front sets seem to come close in offsets... But there are a lot of rear offsets in the 60-62 range. Not 76.
I think I'd prefer forged, one piece, (painted titanium, of course)... 5 lug, ...fewer (straight) spokes... and something tough enough for the track... but light (or I may as well go for OEM)... with a center diameter to accept a Porsche center cap. Too much to ask for?
And so I am looking at Forgeline (GS1), HRE (P104SC)..... rather than spin up another wheel thread, I'll go back through this one. But any ideas welcome!
